Manto counsel for PCS officers argued that federation was authorised to
frame laws but the federation could not enact laws for interfering in
the matters of provinces. Federation could not interfere in the powers
of provinces by making these laws base.
Officers of all the four
provinces took the plea in the court that 710 officers of DGM group
were impediment on the way to their promotion as such laws had been
enacted with respect to transfers of these offices which were blocking
their promotions.
The court has adjourned the hearing till November, 14. Online
