PM approves summary to a point former PTI social media head as head of the newly-created Digital Wing in the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting - as per the law the posts have to be advertised in major newspapers - they were advertised in a lesser read paper ...
The paper is often seen as a favourite of successive Govts because it tends to quite easily publish material sent by the Govt for PR and image building - the posts were not properly advertised as such and circulated within certain social media practitioners seen as close to Govt
One post - that of the head - for which a former PTI social media pioneer has been selected - is MP-2 scale and pay grade, equal in rank to Grade 21 post - Five have been chosen for induction in MP-3 scale - all six are or were associated with PTI’s social media teams
Before the PTI came to power it repeatedly criticised and accused other political parties of inducting party activists and supporters in lucrative government posts
