UoP employees seek probe into Rs500m housing project
Peshawar: All the teaching and non-teaching employees of the University of Peshawar have demanded of the university chancellor to constitute a high-level inquiry commission for investigating into the loss of over Rs500 million in construction of 67 houses.

The demand came through a unanimous resolution adopted by the joint general body of all the associations of the University of Peshawar - Peshawar University Teachers Association (PUTA), University of Peshawar Employees Association (Class III), Class IV Employees Union and Sanitation Staff Association - held here on Tuesday that said that responsibility for scam should be fixed and those found responsible for loss should be brought to justice.

The resolution stated that the inquiry commission must investigate the selection of a local and blacklisted architect for designing the houses and look into the relationship between the architect and the in-charge of the project, who is also a director in the vice-chancellor secretariat. Also, it stated, an inquiry should be held into award of the construction contract to the National Logistic Cell without any open tender and fulfilment of necessary formalities.

The resolution said that the construction of the said houses could not be completed within the stipulated time - December 2007 - and is yet to complete. The general body observed that despite the promise by the chancellor to constitute a similar commission in the Senate meeting of the University of Peshawar held in February 2008, no step could so far be taken.

Through another resolution, the meeting stressed the need for settlement of disputes amongst the sister universities on the university campus, saying the engineering, agriculture, medical and Islamia College universities should be re-located outside the campus.

Opposing the upgrading of Islamia College to university level, the meeting observed that there was no need for establishing two general universities within one campus. The meeting declared that the Islamia College University should, therefore, be shifted somewhere outside the campus and the Islamia College Peshawar should be maintained as constituent college of the University of Peshawar.

Besides, all the employees working in the Islamia College University should be given the option of joining the University of Peshawar, while admission to the children of all the employees of the University of Peshawar should be given in Islamia College as per past practice.

The meeting also expressed deep concern over the unscheduled power outages on the university campus and urged the authorities concerned to put immediate end to it.

The meeting demanded of University of Peshawar Vice-Chancellor Prof Dr Azmat Hayat Khan to resolve the problem of the university employees not being accepted by the Islamia College University. The News
