Re: Aitchison principal being fired for resisting nepotism
The objective is not to get education. The objective is to form networks which they would use to continue ruling over the rest of us. It is more like membership of gentleman's club.
then the guy denied them admission is an idiot.. he could have joined the under-formation Pakistan University Project or some other educational project.... but no, he want to be the president of Gentleman's club.. he should know before hand that there is a ban on the entry of Gentle Man in gentleman's club...

Re: Aitchison principal being fired for resisting nepotism
Aitchison college is a semi private institution but the principal (I believe) is a government appointee. Hence they were able to fire Agha. Can they fire beacon house principal like that? NO (because beacon house is a fully private school)
****LAHORE: The management of Aitchison College barred the college’s principal Dr Agha Ghazanfar from entering the university’s premises on Thursday.
Ghazanfar was stopped from entering the college by the administration when he came back from London to take charge of his position. His official car was also detained by officials of the college.
Later, he filed a complaint at the Race Course police station against the administration.
Talking briefly to the media before entering the principal’s residence, Ghazanfar said he was being punished for upholding merit, and was being stopped by Ameer Hussain despite orders of the Lahore High Court.
Ghazanfar, who was ousted from his post by Aitchison College Board of Governors in July, was reinstated by the Lahore High Court on August 23. Read: Aitchison’s Governors vote against principal
In July, Dr Ghazanfar told The Express Tribune he was under immense pressure from influential quarters regarding admissions. He had said this year the admission process had been fair and transparent as merit lists were made public.
On the other hand, the college’s board of governors had said several administrative issues had emerged between the principal and rest of the staff.
Mustafa Ramday, a member of the BoG, said the decision was based on petty issues. “I strongly disagree with the decision made by the majority of the board,” he said. Read: The sacking of a principal
He said the school had ensured transparent admissions this year and none had been challenged. Last year, he said, around 70 writ petitions challenging the admissions had been filed. Calling the decision unfortunate, he said a wrong precedent was being set.
He said a controversy had been created surrounding admissions even though the chief minister had strongly directed the principal to ensure merit.
Re: Aitchison principal being fired for resisting nepotism
So our "agencies" (read FIA, Army, NAB) cant see this corruption?
Eik admi rul raha hai roads per just because he is being honest and did no allow out of merit admission in college to kids of entitled elite. Karachi main roz civic center per raid hota hai, kabhi water board ki office per raid hota hai kabhi Higher Education commission k office per raid hota hai what about this matter which is in public for some time now?

FYI 'agencies' are doing a very serious, much needed and much appreciated crackdown on all kinds of terrorism and industrial scale institutionalised financial corruption which had crippled the financial hub of Pakistan and affected millions and millions of ordinary Pakistanis on daily basis. Their job is not to take any and every remotely 'public' matter to score some brownie points!
Any sane person would be able to comprehend and digest the fact that colossal level of land theft, water theft, political and economic terrorism in Pakistan's financial hub is far more important and unique task, and can no way be compared with a misery of jobless principal of an elitist of elite institution whose matter has been resolved by the court in such a timely fashion. I really did not understand the point behind a typical MQM style taunt and whataboutery.

As a matter of fact, "agencies" should have no say on corruption control. They have no business arresting people for corruption but they are doing it since Govt and other civilian agencies are no doing their job and people are appreciating it (including myself) but sometimes authorities have to take actions to keep the public perception straight and to send message and this principal case is one such case.
Re: Aitchison principal being fired for resisting nepotism
You sound massively confused.
It is indeed FIA and NAB's job to control corruption and arrest people, majority of the raids in Karachi are being conducted by Rangers in collaboration with FIA and NAB. Let's not get blinded by our age old contempt for 'agencies' because you associate the word with men in uniform!
It makes no sense to ask FIA and NAB who are busy unearthing colossal level of corruption which has perpetuated all kinds of terrorism in Karachi to take the notice of Aitchison principal just because the issue is 'public' (so are 1000s of other issues)! Why do you want NAB, FIA and Rangers to get involved when LHC has already given its verdict in favour of the principal? How does this case even qualifies as economic or political terrorism in order for Rangers to take action there? If you really care about keeping the public perception straight, you could have asked for action to be taken against Punjab based bureaucrats and politicians for indulging in exactly the kind of systematic corruption which is being exposed in Karachi. But truth to be told, rumours are also flying that crackdown against systematic corruption will complete its full cycle in Punjab - which is exactly what we need.
