Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa – The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Sports Directorate is under heavy criticism after the untimely issuance of a fresh seniority list for Caretakers and Storekeepers (BPS-08). The list was published without important departmental clearance, and as a result, many officials accepted new, possibly illicit, promotions and duties. The action left a long shadow over the directorate's openness and recruitment procedures.

Sources indicate that the seniority list, which was initially from 2022, had changes implemented in 2025. Alarming enough, the Establishment Wing of the Sports Directorate did not apprise the Secretary Sports Office or the incumbent Director General (DG) Sports of these important alterations. Criticizers are now regarding this lack of knowledge as a calculated effort to delay and cover up the issue.

A further inquiry by sources reveals that under the leadership of a previous DG Sports, the seniority list of the Caretaker was secretly amended. This was done with the apparent motive of granting undue promotions to certain persons through the DPC. Many employees have protested against these actions, lodging written complaints at the Secretary Sports Office.

Even after three formal reminders issued by the Secretary Sports Office, the provincial Sports Directorate has remained surprisingly quiet. The Secretary Sports Office had categorically asserted in writing that the list released in 2025 has no legal status as the incomplete approval process.

The employees who have been affected are now demanding a complete investigation, creating quite an uproar within the ranks of the Sports Directorate. They are also requesting an open investigation of the issue and firm action against the individuals who have been found guilty of such other irregularities.
