Resolution submitted in Punjab Assembly to ban dual citizens from government jobs
A new resolution has been submitted in the Punjab Assembly, demanding that individuals holding dual citizenship should not be appointed to government jobs. This resolution was presented by a member of the Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) with the aim of ensuring the loyalty and transparency of officers working in government institutions.
The text of the resolution states that those holding government positions should be loyal only to Pakistan. Supporters of the resolution believe that individuals with dual citizenship may have a conflict of interest; therefore, only those holding Pakistani citizenship should be prioritized for important government positions.
Various opinions are emerging on this matter both inside and outside the assembly. Some people say that this step is necessary to protect national interests, while some critics believe that it could create obstacles in benefiting from the services of overseas Pakistanis.
Now, this resolution will be presented for debate in the Punjab Assembly. If the assembly passes this resolution, further legal action will be taken to amend the rules for government jobs. The public and political circles are keeping a close eye on this development.
