PESHAWAR: The appointment of Dr Badshah Munir Bukhari as project director of the University of Chitral has been challenged in the Peshawar High Court (PHC).
Dr Ismail Wali challenged the appointment of the project director through his lawyer Mohibullah Trichvi. He claimed the appointment was made on political ground and in violation of the merit list and law.
The provincial government through chief secretary, Higher Education Department, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and the newly appointed project director were made parties to the petition. It was stated that the petitioner Dr Ismail Wali had done his PhD in English literature and was a scholar of high repute.
It was submitted in the petition that secretary Higher Education Department (HED) had sent a summary to the chief minister for the appointment of project director, University of Chitral.
The petitioner claimed that his name was on top in the summary for the post of project director. He claimed that in violation of the merit the provincial government first issued notification of Dr Jamil Ahmad as project director even though his name was fourth in the merit list. The petitioner maintained that the HED had recommended only top three names in the summary for the appointment of the project director of the university.
