The management of Kohat University for Science and Technology has been accused of gross violation in appointments against various administrative and other positions.Some of the officials have been reappointed after reaching the age of superannuation against the Supreme Court verdict, sources told The News.
The registrar of the university Tariq Saleem Qasuria has been reappointed on contract twice after his retirement in August last year, the sources said. “The registrar was given six-month extension after his retirement, which expired in February last. He is still holding the office in violation of the Supreme Court verdict about reappointment of the retired officials,” an official at the university said while requesting not to be named.
The university also set a new tradition by appointing Dr Taslim Hussain as associate professor in 2008 without following any procedure, the sources said, adding that he had been hired despite not fulfilling the criteria for the position.
Appointed as associate profession in violation of all rules and regulations, Taslim Hussain was promoted as full professor in December last without having 10-year post PhD experience, which is a pre-requisite for the position, the sources added.
The position of station manager of the university’s radio had not been advertised and Kamran Khattak, close relative of a senior leader of the ruling Awami National Party, was appointed against it, the sources said.
The sources also revealed that Asia Bokhari had been serving as deputy director quality enhancement cell despite the fact that the selection board of the university rejected her twice in 2007 and 2010.
None of the high-ups of the university could be reached on all their available contact numbers for comments. Vice-chancellor of the university Prof Dr Nasir Jamal was not present in his office, while nobody was receiving phone call at his contact numbers in Peshawar. The registrar was out of his office and his cell phone was not responding. An official at the registrar’s office suggested calling another official at the library section, but he too was not available.
