Favouritism: Fake job orders issued in education dept

HYDERABAD:

Some people in the education department have allegedly issued fake employment orders, which is unfair on innocent and unemployed people.

This was said by the headmistress of the Heerabad government primary school, Razia Laghari, on Monday. “I was given four offer orders for Rs0.8 million but they all were bogus,” she said. She added that the president of the Primary Teachers Association, Mohib Khoso and his son Aijaz Khoso were involved in selling the fake orders. “I demanded them to give the money back but they warned me to keep silent or face dire consequences.” She showed the media copies of the bogus orders and said that they had been sent to Sindh Chief Minister, and the education minister, Pir Mazharul Haq. Laghari presented four orders for Naib Qasid (BPS-1) and the bribe for each order was Rs200,000. The local leadership has also complained of such activities in different departments but an inquiry has yet to be initiated.
