HYDERABAD, Jan 1 The office-bearers of the Jamshoro chapter of All-Pakistan Clerks Association held a demonstration outside the press club on Thursday in protest against transfers and promotions of people belonging to areas out of the district who they said had managed to get them posted in Jamshoro.

Talking to journalists, APCA leaders said that clerical staff at the education offices in Jamshoro had been on strike for past three days against the outsiders' posting.

They said that after the Larkana circuit bench of the Sindh High Court declared 200 promotions of teachers and other employees of Dadu as illegal, many of them were now trying to get them transferred to Jamshoro and other districts to save their promotions.They claimed that acting on their complaint, Jamshoro District Nazim Malik Asad Sikandar had directed EDO education not to issue posting orders to outsiders and MNA Nawab Abdul Ghani Talpur had advised the secretary of education to stop illegal promotions and transfers.

Despite this, illegal postings were being made in Dadu and Jamshoro districts, they said and threatened to move court if the practice was not stopped.
