A meeting of the general body of the PMS Officers Association was held in the provincial capital on Sunday, and was attended by nearly 1,000 provincial officers. Furthermore, provincial officers also demanded the immediate transfer of chief secretary of Punjab, saying that he had disappointed them. In addition to this, DMG officers of BPS-19 are often appointed as DCs in different districts, while PMS officers are deprived of this right. Furthermore, BPS-20 DMG officers are compulsorily given the secretariat, but PMS officers are not. Lastly, while the DMG officers are promoted to a higher grade every five years, PMS officers do not have such consistency in promotions.
