PESHAWAR, September 5: Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pervez Khattak empowered the Board of Directors of TEVTA to nominate its Vice Chairman and recommend its Managing Director in order to make the body physically and legally operational. The body would be fully independent in its decision making process but the decision making should not be politically motivated, he added.He was presiding over a meeting of the Board of Directors of TEVTA at CM Secretariat here on Monday. Special Assistant to CM for Technical Education Arsahd Umerzai, Secretary Technical Education and board members attended. The members talked about the obstacles and complaints about the proceedings of the board meeting and the capacity issues of the TEVTA employees. The Chief Minister assured that his government would never allow the wastage of resources and time and would ensure that whatever recommended by the Board was put on ground in a transparent manner.
He said, he knew how the bureaucratic mindset work but he would never compromise on the future of our future. This government needed a trained manpower and the institutions established for the purpose would have to deliver. Unfortunately some elements did not deliver and the blame is shifted to others for not delivering. His government would change this mindset. It would overhaul TEVTA to be manned by the best among the best and even the excellent ones. He would never allow political pettifogging in public sector institutions like TEVTA which had been established to prepare and equip our youth for future.He was annoyed over the declining trend in the performance and efficiency of Vocational and Training Institutes, directing that the monitoring of the institutions would be undertaken by the Air Force which would carry and run different institutions of the technical education side in future.
Pervez Khattak said that his government introduced a set of legislations for transparency and openness in all public dealings. He would fight on this front as institutions were destroyed in the past by the political and bureaucratic mindset. We all cannot shift the blame to others.-PR
