ISLAMABAD: The Defense Ministry has requested additional quota in civil service for its injured and disabled officers, according to a News report released Saturday.
The desired allocation is in addition to the existing 10% quota for armed forces officers in public service through the Federal Public Service Commission.
The ministry requested this in a letter written to the Establishment Division, according to the publication.
He referred to an earlier letter dated March 29, 2023, requesting that the injured military officers be inducted into the Trade and Commerce Group or the Pakistan Audit and Accounts Service.
The Ministry of Defense said that over the past two decades, many young officers across the country have been physically disabled in the war on terrorism.
Due to their physical disability, they cannot work in the army to their full potential and due to their lack of medical fitness, they cannot be included even in the 10% quota.
The Establishment Division has again been asked to consider the inclusion of war-disabled officers in various professional service groups, including the Security Group, particularly for posting to the Ministry of Defence.
