NESCOM, NDC called in over extensions

The SC had held that no officer over 60 shall be appointed on contract because this blocks promotions of juniors.

ISLAMABAD:


National Development Complex (NDC) and National Engineering and Scientific Commission (Nescom) have two weeks to justify contractual job appointments in violation of Supreme Court orders.


Islamabad High Court Justice Riaz Ahmad Khan issued notices on Tuesday seeking their replies after Raja Saifur Rehman filed a writ petition on behalf of 31 affected petitioners including Muhammad Zubair, Saeedullah Khan, Zafar Iqbal Rajput and Sajid Bashir and others for implementation of the SC judgment in the Hajj corruption case.

The SC had held that no officer over 60 (retirement age) shall be appointed on contract because this blocks the promotions of deserving junior officers for years.

The writ petition has been filed against Nescom staffers including Director General Javed Raza Khan, Shahid Raza, Arshad Mughal, Colonel (retd) Sami and Colonel (retd) Ashfaq Malik who have retired but continued working on the same posts on contract after obtaining several extensions.

It is absolutely heartfelt to know that officers have to fight for their judicious right even in the org like NDC/NESCOM. So called heads must use their grey matter to understand the delicacy of the situation and must respond briskly to control it.This case is the clear sign as they failed as leader. COAS may also be requested as well to initiate repatriation of uniform personnel to barrack specially those serving in the orgs like NESCOM for one reason or another. He must save them from becoming the SCAR instead of STAR of nation. Remember, we cannot be promoted unless we are replaced. I guess if at all an individual needs to be held, who has attained the age of superannuation, the decision must be taken with consensus and a separate pool for them must be maintained without affecting the promotion event of deserving candidates. Keep it up Sajid Bahir. May Allah give you enough courage to climb this ladder and stand tall among the impending crowd following you.
