Karachi (Reuters) Young people protested today outside Press Club Karachi for mismanagement in FPSC recruitment test for the post of stenographers (BS-16) on 6 December 2013 at Vocational Training Center, Jacob Line
Saddar Karachi.There were 20-25 persons demanding either to give them back their test fees or take action against the invigilators who recruited test.
Candidates told Humari News that they were preparing for it about 4 months.They paid test fees plus private training fees for preparation for the test but on the day of test FPSC has done totally Bungle in recruitment process.It was all pre-planned, seats were already sold and for just completing mock process FPSC invited candidates from all over province Sindh.Persons from interior Sindh were very angry as their transportation expense gone in vain
FPSC advertised this post via different newspapers couples of months ago and then post-ponded test earlier due to some reason. Advertisement was appeared as . Case no: F.4-101/2013-R (Adv no:
08/2013) both on papers and FPSC website.
FPSC always took heavy fees in the name of recruitment process but did same as above many times.This is not new, but today a guy from Jacobabad tried to burn himself as a protest outside Karachi Press Club as he was claiming his test preparation and recruitment test went too much good but he can't expect anything from FPSC as they have made him fool.
According to candidates it was totally CB based test means Computer based but their were no back up generators available at test center. Test started at 12 noon and it should went to 3 'O' clock but at 2 pm they requested candidates to shut down PC's because it was time for loadshedding and they are going to start generator but their generator not started till 2:15 and they offered candidates cup of tea and took them to separate room.According to candidates they are just making fool to them and FPSC employees were not starting generators might be they are coping work of best candidates to paste it on the sheets of persons who Paid them GOSH.
Meanwhile at 2:45 they got again access to PC's where candidates again started giving test.At 3:15 they ordered all of them to stop working and told them that their is no need to print or apply password on MS EXCEL and MS WORD as both are mandatory on Question sheet, just rename the folder name with thier concern roll numbers.A guy protested on it and raised the question that it will be totally insecure & anyone can easily change the folder name with his roll number.But FPSC employees forced him out and said if he has not have any trust on their selection process that he can easily complain to Head office or can go to police station but they will not allow him to print file or apply password on file.
It was noted that FPSC Islamabad issued 4 separate blank sheet which top corner included column of Name,Roll number, Center name and Signature of the candidate which has to fill completely by candidate and then he has to print typing and software test on it but FPSC Karachi regional recruitment staff made everyone fool and took signature plus everything filled by candidates before starting of the test.
Candidates are looking forward to file Case in Sindh High Court.
