No NTS centre for SST candidates in Chitral

Moreover, there are 85 positions announced for district Chitral for SST (BPS-16): 25 female and 60 male positions. Last date for submission of form is December 10, 2014. It is pertinent to mention that for all the adhoc-based positions mentioned above, NTS has established test centres in all the 25 districts of KPK, including Chitral. However, ironically, there is no such option for Chitrali candidates applying for SST (BPS-16). Rather, they have to choose among the 10 NTS test centres (other than Chitral) as their desired test city: Peshawar, Malakand, Mardan, Swat and Upper Dir etc. Considering the winter season ahead, and consequently the closure of Lowari Tunnel, the unavailability of Test Centre in Chitral could have very negative impacts on the prospective candidates from district Chitral. Through this esteemed online newspaper, we request the high-ups of the Elementary & Secondary Education department, KPK and the NTS to seriously consider the plight of Chitrali candidates and to take necessary action in this regards.]]>
