1) It is to clarify that funding is released on the recommendations of the senate committee headed by Mr. Raza Rabbani with other elected parliamentarians. All are elected by the People of Pakistan not the Secretary of IT or whatsoever. There is also the recommendations of senate committee to stop all R&D activities and it put a cut on budget of this Ministry,S&T and other semi government R&Ds.
So, Secretary can do nothing with the funding (He hasn't any factory of money to release the funds) but he has defended his Ministry in senate committee against devolution.
2) Its just false that Mr. Farooq Awan has been appointed and many grade 22 officers are ignored..there is no such grade 22 officer in the said Ministry..however till the deputation of grade 22 from any other department an additional duty can be assigned. Many others are doing their duties with the same criteria/rules since birth of the Ministries.
He was Ordered to take the additional charge..
3) Secretary cannot appoint any interim CEO and CFO of the ICT R&D Fund. The appointment is also approved with recommendation of selection committee which includes members of FPSC, from other departments and Parliamentarians.
So, Secretary cannot appoint any CEO or any other officer of 17 and above..
4) Secretary has not suspended Chairman National Telecommunication Corporation (NTC). Secretary don't have any political agenda. Suspension orders are released from PM Secretariat. He has also not suspended any senior managers of USF who were against making payment of Rs. 120 million to an advertisement company without following public procurement rules.(This is just blame too).
Please stop making single man trial, blames or shits like that...Why dont you go to Supreme Court with PROOFS to release the Funds by the secretary, Selection or suspension of chairman or any other by the secretary ???
