Vacant posts affect working of RBISE

Rawalpindi: Non-recruitment against top-level positions at Rawalpindi Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (RBISE) has badly affected the working of the board.

Officials of the board are performing extra duties on the vacant posts like chairman, secretary, controller examination and deputy controller examination which are lying vacant since the termination of RBISE chairman Professor Abdul Hafeez and other officers in answer-sheets scam. The post of the secretary is vacant after promotion of Professor Hamayyon Iqbal.

Sources in the RBISE said that top posts in the board are laying vacant for the last many months and other officials have additional charges and working on these posts which is not only creating problem for the officials but also affecting the working of the board. "Those who are performing extra duties on these posts could not concentrate on official matters because of their busy schedule," he said.

Sources said that officials' working on these posts afraid because they have no experience to run the board matters smoothly. The board has faced many issues like SSC examination. Interviews have been conducted for the posts of chairman, secretary and controller examination, but the education department has failed to finalise candidates because of the political pressure, the sources added. "There were 38 candidates for the post of chairman and 227 for the seat of secretary."

When contacted acting Chairman RBISE Dr Muhammad Ashraf, he said the Education Department has conducted interviews for the top positions of the board and now it is its responsibility to finalise the candidates. He said, "I am also waiting to handover the charge of the board to the concerned official so that I could concentrate on my own work."
