Islamabad: The teachers of federal government colleges in the Islamabad Capital Territory have threatened agitation against delay in promotion.
They warned they would take to the streets to claim right.
Federal Government College Teachers Association president Professor Manzar Zafar Kazmi told reporters here that two months ago, the Capital Administration and Development Division’s Departmental Promotion Committee had promoted 17 lecturers of Islamabad colleges as assistant professors, including both men and women but ironically, the promotions had yet to be notified to take effect.
He criticised the red tape in this respect and said the long delay in the issuance of the promotion notification had caused unrest among the teachers promoted.
The FGCTA president said it was unfortunate that repeated requests had been made to the relevant CADD officials to do the needful, but to no avail.
He warned if the issuance of the notification was delayed further, the teachers would come onto the streets to claim due promotion.
The CADD oversees ICT government educational institutions through the Federal Directorate of Education.
Among the teachers promoted were Sarfraz Malik, Khalid Mehmood Chaudhary, Tariq Mehmood Baloch, Muhammad Habibullah, Kamran Sarfraz Baig, Nasreen Bano, Seema Kausar, Nuzhat Afshan (subject to provision of ACR), Nabila Naeem, Asma Nizam, Shazia Iram, Tanveer Zehra, Dr Asiya Muhammadullah, Mehreen Akhtar Abbasi, Raheela Kausar, Sadia Iftikhar, and Yasmeen Shahab.
