Provincial Minister for Higher Education Kamran Khan Bangash said that the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has decided to upgrade the Directorate of Higher Education to the Directorate General of Higher Education and to establish three new regional directorates to facilitate people at their areas.
He said that the upgrade from Directorate of Higher Education to Directorate General of Higher Education will give more powers to the Department of Higher Education and will also create more posts in the department from which the department will benefit.
According to the vision of Prime Minister Imran Khan and under the leadership of Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Mahmood Khan we have fulfilled another promise by devolving power to lower levels for better governance, he added.
These views were expressed by the Provincial Minister for Higher Education Kamran Khan Bangash in a statement issued on Saturday.
The provincial minister said that instead of just one directorate of higher education for the entire province, a total of four directorates have been set up now. Directorate of Higher Education has been upgraded to Directorate General of Higher Education while three regional directorates have been established including Regional Directorate of Higher Education South Bannu, Regional Directorate of Higher Education Malakand Swat and Regional Directorate of Higher Education Hazara Abbottabad.
The provincial minister said that they are committed to serve the people and will continue to work for the welfare of the people in the future as well.
