Earlier this year, a three-member committee was set up to oversee the affairs of the state institution wherein the committee agreed to strip the chairman of his powers.
Members of the committee included Pervez Rathore Abbasi, Israr Abbasi and Pakistan Telecommunication Authority Chairperson Ismail Shah.
