PESHAWAR: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police have begun the process to recruit constables in the province for 2015.

The recruitment will be carried out through the National Testing Service, according to a spokesman for the police.

The NTS was tasked with recruiting the policemen in the province in 2014 to ensure merit, transparency and fair play.

The police spokesman said more than 37,000 candidates applied for the police posts last year through the NTS showing the people’s confidence in the process.

He said around 2,600 constables were selected in all 24 districts of the province through a transparent and verifiable process.

“The entire recruitment process was completed smoothly with no complaint of foul play in any district. The success of this process set examples for other provinces and departments to follow it,” he said.

The last date for submission of applications to the NTS is March 12.

The physical test of the candidates will be held from March 31 to April 11 at Peshawar, Mardan, Swat, Timergara, Chitral, Abbottabad, Mansehra, Kohat, Bannu and Dera Ismail Khan centres. The written test of eligible candidates will be held at these centres on April 19 simultaneously.

The final selection of candidates will be done after qualifying emotional intelligence test conducted by senior and qualified psychologists retired from ISSB.

The written test based on the standard of matriculation syllabus will examine the candidates in English, Urdu, Islamiat and general knowledge, including Pakistan Studies.

According to the spokesman, in order to encourage educated youths for joining the police, additional marks will be given to the applicants under the following format: intermediate two marks, bachelor’s degree two marks, and master’s degree and above one mark only.

PESHAWAR: The National Accountability Bureau, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, has arrested two bank employees for allegedly embezzling approximately Rs55 million in SNGPL utility bills.

In a statement issued here on Monday, the NAB said that it received a complaint regarding embezzlement of huge amount in respect of SNGPL utility bills by employees at the Al-Barka Bank’s Hayatabad branch. The NAB taking cognizance started inquiry into the matter, which revealed that bank employees, M Irfan and Qazi Wajidullah Khan, in connivance with others, used to pocket the amount of utility bills paid by SNGPL consumers through the bank’s Hayatabad branch.

The statement said that the two employees concealed their wrongdoings by manipulating bank record by generating and forwarding fake scrolls to SNGPL. The two employees kept on embezzling the funds from November 2009 to April 2014, said the statement, adding that NAB seized all the fake scrolls and other relevant record in this regard.

The statement said that NAB was vigorously pursuing the case and important disclosures were expected from the arrested persons which could lead to further arrests in the case.

The NAB said that the persons would be presented in the Accountability Court, Peshawar, for obtaining their physical remand for further investigations. —Bureau Report

It's because KPK govt is doing all their jobs within the money they have. They are not taking loans like your leaders did and are doing. This is a great thing that they are not bringing bullet-proof cars like your govt did and after some time everybody got to know that the cars were not bullet-proof but were simple cars and your leaders fooled police officers and eaten all the money.

Maybe any of the user of that car (security officer) broke that lock?

Even in developed countries like Japan, China etc govt recycle old things and use it as long as possible. You told me another good thing about PTI govt in KPK. :)

BTW Who the hell are you to question it? Shall I remind you the performance of your govt in Sindh? Or in federal?

Bill Gates praises KP’s anti-polio campaign

Philanthropist and chairman of Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Bill Gates, called Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Tuesday and appreciated his efforts in trying to eliminate polio virus from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Gates congratulated Imran on conducting a successful anti-polio campaign, ‘Sehat Ka Ittehad’ (Alliance for Health), in the province. He also expressed grief and sorrow over the killing of 131 students during a Taliban attack on school in Peshawar.

The philanthropist assured his support to the KP government in carrying out further efforts to eliminate the crippling disease from the province.

PTI leader Jahangir Tareen said that "Bill Gates appreciated #Sehatkaittehad anti polio initiative led by Imran Khan and said that the initiative offers the only hope."

Imran Khan reiterated his resolve of making KP a polio-free province and said that all out efforts are being carried out by the provincial government to successfully run the anti-polio campaign.

A KP health official associated with the polio eradication programme told Dawn that ‘Sehat Ka Ittehad’ was a brainchild of PTI chief Imran Khan. Even though there are tensions with the federal government over electoral rigging, but health was a separate subject, he said.

An official of Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) — the nerve centre for all polio-related activities in the country — told Dawn that it was strange that even though the new ‘Sehat Ka Ittehad’ campaign was a joint venture between the federal and KP governments, the EOC and the PM’s Polio Cell were completely unaware of it.

Official data shows that an overwhelming 96 per cent of polio cases so far reported are among the Pashto-speaking population of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Fata.

The epidemiological statistics of the so far reported cases shows that 82pc cases are among children below 2 years of age, which indicates that either the parents are not willing to vaccinate their children or the teams had no access to those children who were with their mothers and could not be vaccinated outside homes.

Officials say the reason for this factor is that the health authorities are lacking female vaccinators who are more welcome to enter houses to administer polio drops.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has said that Pakistan is responsible for nearly 80 per cent of polio cases reported globally.

“The situation is primarily due to a lack of access to children for vaccination, largely owing to a continuing ban on immunisation imposed by militants in the North and South Waziristan, and insecurity and killing of polio workers in the field,” said a progress report.

PTI lawmakers vow to vote for party-backed candidates

PESHAWAR: The Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) lawmakers have reiterated their commitment to vote for all the candidates supported by their party in the Senate elections.

However, they want merger of Awami Jamhoori Ittehad Pakistan (AJIP), their coalition partner in the provincial government, into PTI before the Senate polls.

Imran Khan, who will visit Peshawar on Wednesday’s afternoon, may throw light on AJIP’s merger into PTI and take his party lawmakers into confidence.

Chief Minister Pervez Khattak convened a meeting of his party members as well as those from the coalition partners including Jamaat-i-Islami and AJIP on Tuesday to work out a strategy for the Senate polls and form panels of members to vote for the nominated candidates.

Sources said that PTI members did not raise the contentious issue of PTI chairman’s decision to award party ticket to Liaquat Khan Tarakai, the father of Shahram Tarakai, a senior minister in the provincial government and chief of AJIP. Mr Liaquat was awarded the ticket on the condition that he would merge his Sawabi-based AJIP into PTI. This, however, has not taken place despite public statement by Mr Shahram.

AJIP has five seats in the 124-member Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly. A candidate requires 17 votes to become a senator. PTI lawmakers say that they would vote for Tarakai owing to the decision of Imran Khan but would do so with a heavy heart. “We expect Imran Khan to remind Tarakai of his commitment to merge his party into PTI,” a lawmaker, who attended the meeting, told Dawn.

Source in PTI say that AJIP has already been getting more than its due share in the provincial coalition government. Giving a Senate seat to it is going a bit too far, they add.

“Minister for Education Mohammad Atif has played a key role in getting the elder Tarakai a PTI’s ticket for the Senate elections,” sources say, adding that Atif Khan is considered very close to Imran Khan.

The PTI lawmakers doubt Tarakai’s credentials as his brother MNA Usman Tarakai is supporting the Nawaz Sharif-led government in the centre, according to sources.

Atif Khan admitted that he was a relative of Tarakai but denied that he played any role in getting him PTI ticket for Senate polls.

He said that the decision was taken on the basis of principles. “AJIP is our coalition partner in the government and deserves one Senate seat like Jamaat-i-Islami, which also has been given one seat,” he said.

The minister said that AJIP might merge into PTI at an appropriate time as it had similar manifesto to that of PTI. He said that PTI wanted change and end to corruption while the same was the goal of AJIP. “We want to induct clean politicians with strong background and vote bank in their respective constituencies and AJIP fulfils the criteria,” the minister said.

Security forces arrest TTP commander in Hangu


HANGU: Security forces on Tuesday arrested four members of the banned outfit Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) during a raid in the Chapri Naryab region.

TTP commander alias Lal Sher was among the four suspected militants who were later taken to an unknown location for further interrogation.

Weapons and bombs were also recovered from their hideout, security forces said.

Hangu had been on the frontline of a seven-year-long Taliban insurgency and borders the semi-autonomous Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Fata) and the northwestern tribal region of Orakzai, one of Pakistan's seven lawless districts on the Afghan border considered to be the hub of Taliban and Al Qaeda-linked militants.

Last year, it was the stage of several deadly Taliban attacks on security forces and civilians alike.

Security forces have strengthened their resolve to combat terrorism in the country after the deadly Peshawar school massacre in which more than 130 children were killed. The tragic incident sparked national outrage and mobilised the government and military to chalk out a National Action Plan (NAP) — a policy to combat terror which includes the introduction of military courts as well as the biometric registration of citizens in a bid to deliver swift justice.

Security forces are conducting operations across the country with varied success, including in the financial capital Karachi, where Rangers and police are targeting terrorist hideouts and making mass arrests.

Early last month, it emerged that at least 10,000 people have been arrested by civilian and military agencies as part of the implementation of NAP.



 
@Qalandari , stop trolling. If any political party fails to deliver anything, its a failure for the whole nation. What has supporters of PPP achieved during their tenure? We have to make these polictical parties work for us not the other way around. They should just be tools for us to get the services the nation deserves.
