The Sindh Public Service Commission (SPSC) is a provincial agency of Government of Sindh in Pakistan that is responsible recruiting civil servants and bureaucrats in Government of Sindh.
In the parliamentary democracy of Pakistan, the ultimate responsibility for running the administration rests with the elected representatives of the people which are the ministers. But the handful of ministers cannot be expected to deal personally with the manifold problems of modern administration. Thus the ministers lay down the policy and it is for the civil servants to carry out this policy. The Sindh province with 45 million population has over 50,000 public service employees including government employees, health care, education institutions, police, firefighters, taxation, etc.
The Government of Sindh appointed Mr Noor Muhammad jadmani as its new chairman.
The Public Service Commission was set up for the first time in British India in 1926. After independence, the Commission was established in Pakistan in 1947 under the provision of Act 1935. At present, the commission is functioning under article 242 of the constitution of Pakistan. It has been provided autonomy under the Rules of Business, 1973 and FPSC Regulations, 1978 in its working. The Commission has also been given administrative as well as, to some extent, financial autonomy to perform its functions independently.
The Commission consists of a Chairman and Members. The Chairman is appointed by the Governor of Sindh, in his discretion, under Article 242 (IA) of the Constitution of Pakistan, 1973. The members are appointed by the Governor with the advice of Chief Minister. The Commission is assisted by the Secretary who provides a link among the Commission, its Secretariat and the Government Agencies.
The responsibility of the civil services is to run the administration of Sindh. The province is managed through a number of provincial Government agencies in accordance with the policy directions given by the ministries.
