Rawalpindi-Justice Saghir Ahmad Qadri of the Lahore High Court (LHC), Rawalpindi Bench, here on Wednesday directed an MBA final semester student of Quaid-i-Azam University, Kiran Shehzadi, to appear before the Unfair Means Control Committee (UMCC) of the QAU on February 18 for evaluation of her papers.
After issuing the order, the court adjourned hearing in the case till February 24. During next hearing in the case, the court will listen to the claim of the student for being awarded fewer marks in her papers.
Kiran Shehzadi claimed before the LHC that a lecturer in the university due to his personal grudge with her affected her results in the final semester examinations. The university administration has also stopped her results, the petitioner claimed.
Talking to ‘The News,’ Kiran Shehzadi said during her examination a lecturer cancelled her paper on the pretext that she was cheating through her mobile phone and wrote some remarks on her paper. She said that she later appeared before the chairman, who not only cleared her from charges of using unfair means, but also cancelled the comments made by the lecturer.
Advocate Abid Mirza, while representing the university, told the court that she was apprehended while cheating through SMS on her mobile phone. Mirza told the court that the high court was not an appropriate forum for her to appeal.
And UMCC is the proper forum where she has to file her appeal. The deputy controller of examination at the Quaid-i-Azam University, Syed Muhammad Aqeel,
also appeared before the court
and handed over results to the petitioner.
Legal counsel of the petitioner, on the other hand, asked the court to direct the university administration to appear before the court with her papers.
In another case, the same bench directed the legal counsel of the Inter Board Chairman Committee (IBCC) to appear before the court on January 29 in a case related to the International Islamic University, Islamabad. The IIU has challenged the IBCC decision to withdraw awarding IIU’s Diploma of Associate Engineering (DAE) equivalent to intermediate.
Rehan-ud-Din Golra, the IIU lawyer, while talking to ‘The News,’ said that the IIU started a DAE diploma course in 2003 and filed an application before the IBCC to award its diploma equivalent to intermediate.
The IBCC then asked the IIU to put the case before the National Institute of Science & Technical Education (NISTE) curriculum wing for approval of the syllabus.
According to the legal counsel of the petitioner, the NISTE approved the syllabus and issued a no-objection certificate (NOC) to the IIU.
The petitioner’s lawyer told ‘The News’ that some other institutions, which were required to approve the case, also awarded NOC to the IIU for initiation of this course and finally in the 111th meeting the IBCC allowed the IIU to award the DAE equivalent to intermediate. He said that the IBCC awarded the facility only for one batch of the IIU and later stopped it.
