Imran lashes out at govt for assaulting the HEC
South Asian News Agency (SANA)
ISLAMABAD, (SANA): Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan has condemned the governments intervention into the affairs of the higher education commission (HEC), saying that the targeting of the HEC was an ongoing policy of destroying all viable state institutions of the country.
It seems that all viable state institutions are being destroyed one by one under a plan. While the HEC, the only institution helping the youth, was not functioning as well as it could, it was still delivering in the field of Higher Education and the government should be supporting it by enabling it to improve its functioning, Imran Khan said in a statement issued here from the partys official media office.
Unfortunately, Khan said, the government had been impeding its work since it came into power. Now it has gone for a full assault on the HEC, eyeing its resources for further corruption.
Khan pointed out that the government had contravened the SC order of April 2011, specifically asking the government not to violate HEC Ordinance 2002 by getting the Establishment Division to appoint a bureaucrat as Executive Director of the HEC. Legally according to the HEC Ordinance, the Commission has the power to make this appointment. Worse still, a retired Major, now a Grade 22 Bureaucrat, has been given this appointment replacing a qualified technocrat. HECs performance has been devoid of major corruption and scandal which has allowed it to gain financial support from international institutions like the World Bank who otherwise have been reluctant to aid projects in Pakistan.
According to Imran Khan, in the corrupt tradition of this present set of rulers, no viable institution is being left standing to carry out its functions in an efficient and transparent manner. Instead, all state institutions are being targeted and willfully destroyed, especially those with substantial budgets. Govt corporations have been pillaged, bankrupted and politicised. Now education, which is already at the bottom of this governments priorities, will suffer yet another major setback with this wanton destruction of the HEC.
He concluded by expressing utter dismay over the inability of the present set of rulers to rise above their corrupt self interest and act in the larger good of this nation that is so full of promise and this country which has such richness of natural resources. The rulers are killing the promise of their people and destroying the resources of the country with a spirit of undiluted greed.
