BPSC in limbo

The Balochistan Public Service Com-mission (BPSC) is literally non-operational without a chairman for the last couple of months. Staff members merely fill in office hours without doing, or having to do, something meaningful. Results have been compiled, but there is no one to sign the mandatory approval to announce them. Is the government not interested in the matter, or is there no suitable person left to take charge of BPSC? It is often argued that the government’s top priority is counterterrorism. However, in the past, BPSC had remained fully functional even when terrorism was much more widespread in the province than what happens to be the case these days. As they stand today, things are only adding to the growing frustration of the aspiring candidates.
