MULTAN: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) Regional Tax Office (RTO) employees urged the department to take necessary steps regarding their long-delayed promotions, which they got after passing the departmental promotion test almost 10 years ago.
The employees said that they had passed the promotion test for the post of inspector in 2005, while they were not promoted by the RTO despite the orders of the board. The employees who had passed the test included two supervisors, 14 upper division clerks and three lower division clerks.
They added that the Federal Board of Revenue had directed the authorities of the Multan RTO to appoint the candidates as per prescribed designation, but the RTO did not follow the instructions due to unknown reasons.
The employees have demanded that the department should award their promotions before retirement. The officers were planning to protest against the pending promotions in case the department did not give them what they deserved, they added.
