In a significant move to enhance employment opportunities, the Sindh government has approved a five-year age relaxation for candidates applying for government jobs. The decision was taken during a cabinet meeting led by Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah, attended by provincial ministers, advisors, and secretaries.
Key Decisions from the Cabinet Meeting
During the session, the Sindh cabinet also approved the Universities and Boards (Amendment) Bill 2025. This bill had been previously sent back to the Sindh Assembly by the Governor of Sindh, who raised concerns regarding the appointment process of university heads and educational boards.
The newly granted five-year age relaxation comes after the government had previously removed the 15-year age relaxation policy. The change is intended to ensure better access to public sector employment for eligible individuals.
Impact of Age Relaxation on Job Seekers
This decision will provide relief to many job seekers in Sindh who may have been unable to apply for government positions due to age restrictions. By relaxing the age limit, the government aims to increase workforce participation and help candidates who may have missed previous opportunities due to policy changes.
