BackA widow approached the Provincial Ombudsman Sindh Mr. Ajaz Ali Khan stating that the authorities concerned have refused to process her request for appointment in place of her deceased husband who served as Draftsman in the Office of Executive Engineer, Buildings Division, Hyderabad and died during service in July, 2018.
To redress grievance of the complainant Ombudsman Sindh issued directives to the authorities concerned to initiate enquiry against the Officers / Officials responsible for delaying the matter. Due to intervention of the Ombudsman, process and procedure of scrutiny by the concerned departments were expedited and case of the complainant was sent to the District Recruitment Committee for verification and approval. Resultantly the committee found that complainant met the criteria laid down for appointment as Telephone Operator and was accordingly appointed enabling her to care for her kids.
