CSS exam delay case: IHC summons Federal Public Service Commission chairman

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) summoned on Monday the Federal Public Service Commission (FPSC) chairman in a petition seeking to stay the upcoming CSS exam.

IHC’s Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani heard the case filed by citizens Hamza Javed and others through Ali Raza Advocate.

At the outset of the hearing, Justice Kayani remarked that the court could suspend the exam schedule on the previous hearing but it sent the matter to FPSC to review the matter.

The petitioners adopted the stance that the FPSC uploaded the admission certificates on February 4, without hearing the candidates. The commission issued a duty roster on February 3 and announced a new exam.
