Civil Service jobs have job grades and the salary HR can offer a candidate is within a salary range. This range is determined on the job grade (relative worth of that job). Where they will offer you within that range is based on your personal merits i.e. education, job experience and all else you can offer while performing that job.
All other versions you've read, i would highlight that you scrutinise the validity before you believe and share what you've read.

Oh I agree, don't believe everything you read online, especially by anonymous contributors, and scrutinise all you read.
While it's true we're not to openly share any of this information though (hence the anonymity on my part), I'll stand by the fact that academic qualifications are indeed a part of the criterion we use to ascertain your potential paygrade, and it's not wise to pretend otherwise.
Like he says right after mentioning my proverbial "classes" are not real (which is correct, there's no regimented class system, it was just my casual way of categorising them for you to understand more easily the directives HR works with, but he seems to have thought I meant that literally), education factors in in the, as he puts it, "personal merits" used to gauge your worth.
It is also correct that the salary range offered is based off your paygrade. However, in my responses I am assuming you understand I estimate the salaries based off the notion you're applying for entry-level positions, which is to say, MX13, possibly MX14. I'd also like to point out these salaries are covering a wide range of Ministries/
SBs. For instance, the MFA has been known to offer starting salaries of 3.5 to 4k for their FSOs, while others cap out at 3k for fresh graduates.

He refers to, I assume, the paygrades. You are referring explicitly to job titles. These are not that relevant, seeing as "Assistant Director" for example can be anywhere from MX11 to MX9 depending on an assortment of factors.
Public Service jobs tend to start with MX13, with salary anywhere from 2k to 3k+ on average. Others start with Intern/Associate-type positions at the bottom rank. The lower the number, the higher your rank and associate salary. MX12 is higher than MX13 for example.

But i heard that he mentioned stat board b will pay his PB for work done in ministry A so he don't have to forgo his PB this year. If this is true, then there is indeed an unfair treatment. Any one can shred any light on this? Thanks

You "heard"?
Did he explicitly tell you and show you?
If not, you have very little grounds for making the argument based on "unfair treatment". Either investigate further, or drop the matter.
