The recruitment test for male and female police constables in Punjab police will be held at multiple centres in the province including Lahore on Sunday.
According to details, a total of 84,000 candidates will appear in the recruitment test for male and female police constables along with 31,000 candidates who would appear in the test from Lahore alone.
As many as 158 centres have been established by the concerned authorities where the aspiring candidates will appear for the recruitment test.
The Lahore High Court (LHC) has already issued notices to the Punjab chief secretary, and inspector-general on a petition against the Punjab police for allegedly showing discrimination against transgender people by not hiring them in the force.
The counsel for the petitioner stated that Articles 4, 18, and 25 of the country’s Constitution provide “a shield against any kind of discrimination especially in respect to a job or profession to earn a livelihood.”
