vacant since 2008
ISLAMABAD
The Senate Standing Committee on Federal Education and Professional Training on Tuesday expressed displeasure over the vacant Pakistan chairs abroad since 2008.
The Committee which met here with Irfan-ul-Haque Siddiqui in the chair was apprised that a total of 14 Chairs had been vacant since 2008 under different nomenclatures such as the Quaid-i-Azam Chair and Allama Iqbal Chair, Chairs in Urdu and Pakistan Studies.
The Chairman Committee deemed the matter ‘criminal negligence’ and stressed the need for an in-depth probe of the matter, so that those responsible for this apathetic attitude may be taken to task.
