ISLAMABAD: Federation of All Pakistan Universities Academic Staff Association (FAPUASA) has demanded transparent appointment of new Higher Education Commission (HEC) chairman. Dr Shehzad Ashraf Chaudhry, FAPUASA Islamabad Chapter president, requested the search committee members and the Prime Minister to make the process open and transparent by sharing the performa filled by each candidate with all concerned especially the facultymembers across the country. He said the closed-door decisions lead to nepotism and such appointments are violations of verdicts of the court. The performa filled by each candidate should be placed on HEC website along with key parameters used for scrutiny/short listening in addition to the marks each candidate gets for the appointment.
