Pakistan needs officers like Leghari: Nawaz

ISLAMABAD – PML-N Quaid Mian Nawaz Sharif, Sunday, took serious exception to the PPP-led government’s “coercive and intimidating tactics” against the HEC Chairman Dr Javed Leghari and warned that any attempt to destabilise and undermine the democratic order would meet an irresistible opposition that would ultimately frustrate the government’s conspiracies.
“I warn the government to refrain from its threatening conduct against a dutiful officer who has set examples of truthful working in evaluating academic degrees of lawmakers that ought to be emulated by all government officials in discharge of their duties”, PML-N Chief said in a statement issued on Sunday.

He said his party was fully alive to the situation and would in no way allow the government to manipulate wrong from the process. Nawaz Sharif was of the view that the way the PPP-led government was using coercive tactics against the HEC chairman speaks high of the vested interests that wanted the HEC serve in the degree assessment process.
He pointed out that the arrest and release of Dr Javed Leghari’s brother Farooq Leghari and attempt to assault his village in Sindh only exposed the government’s designs of exploiting the process to serve vested interests of the government “I understand Mr Javed Leghari has set higher standards of truthful professionalism in refusing to accept the government dictates and work on merit and worthy dispensation alone”, Sharif added. Pakistan, the PML-N chief said, needed officers like Javed Legahri in striking a balance between commendable conduct and wrongdoing for which he deserves the highest praise.
He advised the government to shun its behaviour that points out to deriving certain nefarious political designs out of the degree evaluation process.
