Punjab Public Service Commission is using Infolinks.com ads for earning money!

We can't say that this is a deliberate attempt from Punjab Public Service Commission to earn money out of its web portal, instead it is assumed that only webmaster is illegally earning money through this. Again we are not sure, maybe the whole department is involved in the corruptions.

We have written in past on how badly the government websites are managed, just because the top executives have very little or no knowledge about the internet and websites.

This is common now with government's official website that their webmasters are earning from banner and link ads.

Thanks to Umer Fawad of PakExpert Technologies for tipping us on this
