The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has directed the PTV management to be fair in promotions and seniority cases.
While taking up a case filed by PTV employees about regularisation and the seniority list, IHC judge Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui observed that promotions and regularisation in PTV on the basis of liking and disliking should be stopped. The judge also said that no discrimination should be meted out to the employees in their promotions and regularisation.
The judge also remarked in a light tone that in PTV sometimes promotions were also given on the basis of pretty faces. PTV Managing-Director Imran Gardezi and information secretary appeared in the court and sought time to implement the court orders.
The court gave the information ministry time to implement court’s orders on the matter and adjourned the case till May 5.
