ISLAMABAD, Aug 29: Top officials of International Islamic University Islamabad (IIUI) have locked horns over hiring and firing of the faculty.
According to sources, Rector Prof Fateh Mohammad Malik last week barred IIUI President Dr Anwar Hussain Siddiqui from issuing any termination letter without the approval of university’s chairman of the board of governors (BoG). Dr Malik is also chairman of the BoG.
The sources said Dr Malik while expressing serious reservations over frequent terminations of the faculty members, which according to him had brought a bad name to the university, asked the president to take the BoG on board in all hiring and firing cases.
It is worth mentioning here that the Supreme Court a couple of months ago had taken suo motu notice of irregular appointments in the International Islamic University.
When contacted, Vice-President International Islamic University (administration & finance) Parveen Qadir Agha contended that the apex court had accepted university’s explanation; hence, the case stood disposed of.
In a written response to queries of this correspondent, she added: “The Supreme Court (human rights cell) did not send a written order as per its rules. As such, the above facts can be verified by obtaining the decision from the court.”
According to the Supreme Court officials, the case was still in process. Similarly, the apex court’s official website, which provides online status of cases, showed no response when the case number “HRC 3056-G/2010” was filled in.
Mohammad Yousuf, on whose application the court took the suo motu notice, had questioned the required experience of three professors who were working as deans of the faculties of Management, Basic and Applied Sciences and Engineering and Technology.
According to Ms Agha, university professor Dr Irfan Khan, the head of the environmental sciences department, was behind the suo motu action against the university.
She said: “Dr Khan had been removed from the chairmanship of the department and the university will also take further action again him.”
When contacted, Dr Khan said: “I expressed resentment on appointment of Dr Riaz Ahmad as Professor (software engineering/dean) of the faculty of basic and applied sciences, because first of all his appointment on contract was not transparent.
It was through silent mode while he was working at the Arid Agriculture University, Rawalpindi, until mid-March 2009 and at the same time he was appointed as dean in January, 2009.
For his appointment, there was no advertisement, no selection board and even no one asked about his credentials and qualifications for professorship.” Therefore, Dr Khan alleged, the university administration had gone against me, and was looking for excuses to throw me out of the job.
“Initially, I was asked to resign. Then in July 2010, the administration conveyed me the adverse remarks in my ACR of 2009 written by Dr Riaz”. He said Dr Riaz commented on his performance during the time when he had even not joined the IIUI.
Dr Riaz is one of the three IIUI professors whose experience was under question in the court.
Dr Khan is the founder chairman of the department of environmental science at the IIUI.
He is the incumbent convener of the National Curriculum Revision Committee in Environmental Science and member of the recently constituted National Think Tank of Environmental Law Reformulation of Planning Commission of Pakistan. Dr Khan, diplomat of Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, London, holds a PhD degree from London University in environmental science.
According to sources, the IIUI was being governed like a kingdom. For example, the sources said, an assistant professor had been appointed as director of the Institute of Islamic Economics in the presence of four renowned professors like Prof Asad Zaaman, Prof Syed Mohammad Tahir, Prof Hamza Ishaq Bhatti and Prof Zamurad Pervaiz Janjua.
A top official of the university requesting not to be named said Ms Agha was a former bureaucrat but running the university which was completely a different job.

Well, How did Mr. Ghumman forgot my name? I worked hand in hand with Dr. Irfan to make this conspiracy work for both of us...Ghuman is my friend too...
Oho...and I forgot to tell all of you that I am Dr. Rahmat Ilahi, the chairman of Math department!! Find me after every misdeed and conspiracy in the university...hahahha
Agreed: Its Rahmat Elahi who is playing on both sides. Who meets Rector twice every day? Who conspires against the President with the filth of Dr. Shabbir and company including the Rais ul Munafikoon-Mr. Gondal? Who becomes Jamaatia whenever needed and in real life his personality is altogeether different...what a bad taste of Dr. Anwar Siddiqi to make him Associate Professor out of turn, out of merit and condoning 5 years of service...You will finf Dr. Rahmat in every camp yet he is with no one...He is one of his kind, and this university needs to get rid of him. He is the source of dis-information and propoganda in all misdeeds... Ask Mr. Siddiqi in Dawah Academy,Dr. Irfan Khan and Dr. Hussain Piracha- all will bear witness against him on the day of judgement...He played with and against them. Math Department needs a change...His fraud, corruption and mis-management is getting out in public and that too with his own faculty member. The Dean, Dr. Ehsan is also trying to hide his mischieve, but remember, He will also kick dr. Ehsan's back.....
Guys, when is Dr Siddiqui leaving? or will he get an other tenure? If not, who are the possible candidates for the post of president, IIUI?
Siddiqi is on his way out and can't survive in existing situation. Whosoever comes next should start with kicking the asses of siddiqi's undeserved promotees like zaia ul haq and co.
“Mai aap ko yakeen dilata hoon kay Siddiqi bhai hi aap kay President Hongay..Yeh Kursi unhi ki muntazar rahay gee” Hum sab nay Rector ki zubaan say yeh jumlay koi do so dafa sunay hain…Hasil kia hoa? Aaap kay samnay hay! Hota yehi hay…Kursi ki koi Maan aur Behn Nahi hoti isi liye…….!!
Aur tu aur Rector ki nawazishaat dekho…badnam-i-zamana, saazish ka dosra naam, 3 universities say nikala gaya, HEC kay kawaneen ki dhajjiyaan ura kar anwar siddiki ki khaas meharbaanion say professor appoint kia janay wala, Dr. Irfan, us kay khilaf 2 courts ka jeeta case waps lay liya…yeh university rector kay baap ki hay?…anwar siddiqui ki fironiat ko privately galian dainay wala rector qanoon aur insaaf ki dhajjiyan bikher raha hay aur munafeeqan ka hajoom taliyan baja baja kar daad deh raha hay..Insaf Pasandoon ko saanp songha hay magar Allah tu dekh raha hay. Rector office sazish ka adda bana hay. Dr. Mumtaz ki soorat mai hum America ghar lay aaye magar America bhi khamosh hay! Is raaz say parda uth hi gaya kay anwar siddiki jaisay saanp nay irfan ki soorat mai jo sanpoliya pala tha, anwar siddiki ko usi nay das liya! Gawahi chahye tu 2010 kay akhbarat mulahiza karain…khas tor par nawai-waqt aur dawn mai chalnay wali chatpati khabrain tu dekhi hi hongi aap nay! Fateh Malik sahib nay Irfan ki saazish aur bechargi ka kia khoob faida uthaya…Maza Aa gaya…Iqbal yehi karnay keh gaye thay!! Irfan aur Fateh malik ka Milan kaisay hoa? Tafseelat phir kabhi magar dallali karnay walay computer science kay Qaisar Shahzad aur Math kay Dr. “Zehmat” Eilahi say pooch zarror laina…Funkaar aur bhi hain magar unkay naam yom-hisaab say pehlay batanay ka waada hay!
Bhaag lagay rahain Anwar Siddiqi ki Ladli, university ki maharani Shagufta haroon ki…..Kal bhi saray faislay is kay thay, raaj aaj bhi iska chalta hay. Anwar Siddiqi ki raani say pooch us kay khandaan ka koi bach gaya hay tu usay bhi bharti kara lay….kehnay ko international university, Pakistan ki dosri badi university aur sab say aham position par aik unqualified registrar…kia yeh khula tazaad nahi? Jis university ka Rector MA pass ho wahan Shagufta Haroon ka aik khareeda hoa MA tu zarorat say zyda hay na jee! Kia gur hain jo kal bhi manzoor nazar thi aur aaj bhi hay! Yahan 18 saal taleem hasil karnay walay zaheen larkay isi university mai 20,000 par hazaroon ka mukabla kar kay bharti hotay hain, wahan is raani ka beta 45000 par rakha gya jis ki qualification fakat MBA hay…Laanat ho Dean Danish par jis ki merit ki batain aasman mai soorakh karti hain…Dikhao hamain poori university mai koi aik RA jis ki starting salary itni ho??? Shagufta Haroon, himmat hay tu maidan mai aa kar jawab do, kitnay course parhati ho is university mai? Waqt kab milta hay? Finance say lay kar Academics tak haramion ki line lagi hay..office hours mai classes parha rahay hotain hai…Rector kabhi is taraf bhi dekho na!
HEC chahta hay aur yeh masala BoG aur National Assembly Floor par zaroor jaye ga kay chairman aur Dean woh log hoon jo retired na hoon….Rector Sahib kin logon ko la rahay hain..aik 60 sala babay ko Dean FAS say hataya tu 70 sal ka dosra lagaya…aik week administrator tu dosra zero by zero…Aakhir rahmat alahi, mohammad sher, faruqi aur Naveed mard nahi jo dean na ban sakain?
Majeed ko PS rector kiun banaya? Benazir Benazir Bhutto Bhutto kartay achanak Rector Maudodi Maudodi kiun kar raha hay? Majeed pehlay bhi sazish ka garh tha, aaj bhi hay! Bas Jamiaat muthi mai rahay, potohar connection laga rahay, kursi bachi rahay…Kal ka Fateh Malik aaj jamation ka nigla kha raha hay…Yehi Iqbal keh gaye thay!
