SC reinstates all govt grade 1 to 7 employees

ISLAMABAD: (HRNW) The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Friday reinstated BPS 1 to 7 employees in its verdict on the review plea of the federal government and 16,000 employees against the annulment of Sacked Employee Act.

The apex court ordered reinstatement of other government servants working in grade 8 and above conditional to departmental tests.

The Supreme Court’s five-member bench headed by Justice Umar Ata Bandial heard the set of petitions seeking review of the annulment under which nearly 16,000 government employees were rendered jobless. The only note of dissent came from Justice Mansoor Ali Shah who contested the decision.

The apex court, in its order, said that the employees working in BPS 1 to 7 will be restored and their case will be heard under Article 184/3. However, the employees working in grade 8 and above will have to pass the departmental examination.
