The Supreme Court of Pakistan here on Monday ordered the Education Ministry to immediately implement Federal Services Tribunal's verdict for promotion of a female director to BPS-20 and submit a compliance report.
A three-member bench comprising Chief Justice Abdul Hameed Dogar, Justice Ejazul Hassan and Justice Chaudhry Ejaz Yousuf issued the order on a contempt of court plea filed by Begum Shahnaz Akhtar. Secretary Ministry of Education Jehangir Bashar, appearing in person, tendered a written apology for not implementing the FST verdict.
Secretary Establishment Division Ghayyas-u-Din apprised the court that she would have been promoted if the concerned officials in ministry of education had provided them seniority list.
He said there was no impediment to her claim for promotion the next grade. The counsel for Begum Shahnaz Akhtar apprised the court that on June 15, 2005, the FST had directed the ministry to consider her case for promotion but they ignored this.
Later, on June 26, 2008, when she took up the case with FST, it again directed the ministry that she should be promoted from the date she was unlawfully prevented from promotion to next grade, he added.
He said she deserved to be promoted from 2001, but the process was lingered on as the concerned officials did not include her promotion case in the meetings of Selection Board on 30 August and November 15, 2008. The hearing was adjourned till November 28.
