In View of the foregoing, the provincial government recommended the petitioners for PAS induction in 2014 and 2015, yet the Establishment Secretary took no action under the prevailing rules, citing ongoing consultations with the FPSC, significant time passed in pursuing the case by the petitioners, and one of the petitioner retired during the proceedings. The subsequent issuance of SRO 274(I)/2021 by the FPSC further complicated the petitioners' position due to inaction on the part of respondent No.1 for the reasons best known to him, which are obvious, with continued inaction being viewed unfavorably regarding PMS/PCS officers' PAS induction. Consequently, this court is left with no option but to direct the Establishment Secretary to immediately act on the provincial government's recommendations for PMS/PCS officers' PAS induction if they meet the eligibility criteria for recommendation through the competitive process under the law without any sort of delay. 10. This petition is thus disposed of under these terms.
