Here’s why HEC chairman has been removed earlier
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

ISLAMABAD: The Higher Education Commission (HEC) chairman, Dr Tariq Banuri has been removed from his post about one year earlier than his scheduled tenure.

A notification has been issued regarding his removal.

Dr Tariq Banuri’s four-year term as the HEC chief was scheduled to be completed in May next year. However, complaints against him were allegedly common on wide scale. He had been running the HEC on ad hoc basis for the last three years.

Neither an ED was appointed on permanent basis, nor were regional directors provided to the educational sector. While, about a dozen consultants were hired on big salaries, among them some were retired and just a graduate by education.

On the other hand, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) had recently launched an investigation against Tariq Banuri for alleged money embezzlement, irregularities, mismanagement and appointment of consultants. Meanwhile, the government has removed him from his post by cutting his job tenure.

A senior board member or ED shall be appointed Acting Chairman HEC, after which a permanent appointment will be made on the post through advertisement.

It is pertinent here to mention that Banuri was appointed as the HEC chairman by former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi for four years in May 2018.

On the flip side, educationists have expressed anger over the government’s decision.

…tried to reform an HEC that was destroyed by the parade of second rate people that had ensconced themselves within it.

The Prime Minister’s Achilles heel is the ability of second rate people to infiltrate the Azam Khan bubble & saturate the PMO w disinformation.

How bad?

This is what I had written when Tariq Banuri was appointed. I was not alone in feeling elated. But our worst fears proved true: the system beat and bullied him down. The greater good is again sacrificed for parochial interests and petty egos.

Let us hang our head in shame! https://t.co/gKkw2psQvQ
