There are certain private colleges in uk which are often affiliated with one university just like different colleges in diiferent cities of Punjab are offering degree of Punjab university. I am confuse then why she edited her page if these boht colleges linked with same university? secondly did Grimsby college verified that she was enrolled in there for postgraduate study but could not finish her course. Its quiet simple to clear this confusion by getting statement from college. why make it complicated with editing and then ahein bahein shaein and blaming media, propagandist and daily mail

if grimsby college info was incorrect media would be all over it by now.the thing that they are quiet means that it is correct .further Reham Khan is not involved in PTI politics nor occupy any official gov post nor PTI party post with revenue so PTI as a party does not get effected by this because she has nothing to do with PTI as a party.Spouse credential center sab PTI walas k liay kholay say tu rahay .one who is not in PTI as a party member or position holder cant damage party .

Raja bhai I read last few posts made by you and totally agree with you.

She basically wrote incorrect name of university to boost her profile page her credentials are not fake but as I said yesterday if you get a job in BBC based on your undergraduate degree and later claim that you also have a postgraduate degree... BBC would have nothing to do with it as she was recruited on the basis of her earlier credentials and her latest credentials might be useful for promotions but not for what she has already attained

As you know in UK many colleges, institutes or academic centres affiliate themselves with one university or another. The famous birkbeck university is affiliated with countless respectable accounting, finance and business schools and colleges and many ordinary colleges at the same time. It does not mean that you start claiming to have studied in the best school of finance if you completed the same degree course offered by birkbeck uni by a pathetic/average college.

Her case is the same... she just boasted about her qualification she never attained to have studied in a better reputed institute before changing it to original case. It's just a clear case of lie and I think she is not the only one in the world who would do that

we are living in uk and know it better how university or college operate in here and by accepting this simple mistake could have save her from all this embarrassment and it would not become this big issue. Most people commit this crime of exaggerating their academic qualification or work experience on their Cv

Who compared Imran Khan with Almas Bobby? I just edited his so called quote just to show him that anything can be written like that and claimed.

Don't try to be over smart and don't twist words beyond their context please.

Oh didn't you compare to @Tameem with "Honourable Bhabi" and Almas Bobby with "Legendary Politician His-Majesty Imran Khan"

No!! ITs just your naive mind that is cooking such things, get well soon.

See this is what happens when you listen Altaf Hussain's telephonic speeches a lot..

to criticise or even insult diff political leaders or first/second lady is one thing
I dont understand why members get personal to each others over these political leaders. Do we consider all these leaders and their beggmaat as infallible ?

I agree, but i think its more frustration with their own person miserable lives rather than Reham's degree qualifications.

 

[Patriots]

Oops!!!!! Another conspiracy theory presented by PTI guys :o

I second to you

Why? She's the wife of IK, he didn't marry her because of her qualification, this is not a job where she'll get fired if her degree turns out to be a fake one. Also she doesn't hold any public portfolio and isn't participating in elections so no worries for IK / PTI..

On topic, lets wait and see Reham's response on this.

So you're saying that getting a fake degree when you don't intend to stand in elections is perfectly fine and morally alright?

Degree in question : Reham untruthful about degree: report
By Qamar Zaman
Published: July 16, 2015

ISLAMABAD:
As degree scandals go in Pakistan, this one made ripples when a British newspaper alleged that Reham Khan, a television presenter and wife of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) supremo Imran Khan, has misrepresented her educational qualifications.

Reacting sharply to criticism, Reham on Wednesday emphatically denied the allegations by Daily Mail which reported that the former BBCbroadcaster had not been ‘truthful’ about completing a postgraduate course in ‘Broadcast Journalism from North Lindsay College’ – a fact stated on her personal website.

Now a household name in Pakistan, Reham started her career in journalism as a reporter for the BBC show South Today upon completing her degree from North Lindsay according to her website.

However, according to officials at North Lindsey, it has never offered such a course. Indeed, it does not teach journalism at all. Furthermore, they can find no record of anyone bearing Reham’s name or age ever having enrolled.

‘We do not have anyone by those names or date of birth having attended this college,’ says a spokesman. ‘We have never done a degree in broadcast journalism.’

In response, Reham issued a statement released by the PTI, terming it a story not based on facts and lacking reporting legwork. The 42-year-old journalist stated that she was being pilloried to divert attention as UK authorities were busy in another high profile inquiry.

Without mentioning MQM chief Altaf Hussain, the statement said that the timing of the attack on Reham’s qualifications is highly suspicious as the country is currently looking towards UK authorities in another high profile case which is far more serious.

The former broadcaster also stated that the media should not be diverted by these ‘smoke screens’ and should focus on matters that can help move towards the goal of ‘Naya Pakistan’.

Censuring the national media debate on her educational background, she said that such attacks are only aimed at detracting the masses from the ‘real’ issues and that no such attacks can stop her from raising her voice on social issues.

“There should be no need to clarify. However, I need to put the issue at rest. I categorically state that after completing my undergraduate, I undertook a one year postgraduate course for a Diploma in Broadcast Media at Grimsby Institute Media Centre which ended on 23rd June 2006,” Reham said in stout defense of her educational qualifications.

In a bid to brush off allegation leveled against her by the UK-based paper, the former broadcaster claimed that she received the certification after acquiring a Bachelors Degree from the prestigious Jinnah College for Women, University of Peshawar.

Shortly after releasing the statement, the former BBC journalist took to social networking site, Twitter to heap scorn on the Daily Mail and Pakistani TV channels. “Just because it’s an English newspaper, doesn’t make it good,” she said in one of her posts laced with anger on the site.

She also changed the name of the university on her official website.

On the other hand, MQMers are cheering this news because it takes the spotlight away from their drunkard leader's anti-national and pro-terrorism diatribes. You know who else is vocally as anti-army as Altaf? It's Adnan Rashid of TTP. What does Altaf and Adnan Rashid have in common? Simple; they're both terrorists with innocent blood on their hands.
