424 lecturers get job letters
Karachi: The Sindh education department on Wednesday issued appointment letters to another batch of 424
lecturers - 248 male and 176 female - at a ceremony held at Sindh
Madressa-tul-Islam College. Senior Sindh Minister Pir Mazhar-ul-Haq, who also holds the portfolio of
education, was scheduled to be the chief guest at the ceremony but he could not
make it owing to his preoccupation in Dadu. In his place Katchi Abadis Minister
Nadim Bhutto presided over the ceremony while Education Secretary Siddiq Memon
handed over the appointment letters to 424 lecturers, who had recently passed
the examination conducted by the Sindh Public Service Commission (SPSC).
A number of other lecturers who had received their appointment letters from
the Sindh senior minister were also given their posting orders on the
occasion.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr Bhutto said that the appointment of lecturers,
made by the education department purely on merit and on the recommendations of
the SPSC, would help improve the quality of education in the public sector
colleges.
Lauding the Sindh senior minister's firm resolve that all newly appointed
lecturers would be posted at the districts of their domicile and where they were
required, he urged the college teachers to refrain from using their political
clouts or exerting any pressure for getting them posted in the colleges of their
choice.
In his brief speech, the education secretary said that the government in the
light of the report of a committee had reinstated all those teachers whose
services were terminated in 1996.
Director-General (Colleges), Sindh, Prof Nasir Ansar, Director (Colleges),
Karachi Region Prof Najma Niaz, education minister's coordinator Naveed Zuberi
and senior officials of the education department were also present on the
occasion. Dawn
