00:00In Pakistan, the issue of education is in front of you.
00:04Approximately 250 million children are out of schools.
00:07And there is a great need in Pakistan at this time.
00:11And I think all these government departments should do this work.
00:15Education should be an emergency.
00:17And there should be maximum focus.
00:1960% of the population of Pakistan is obviously focused on young people.
00:23And it is very important for the management of our universities, schools and colleges
00:29that the governments keep them in priority.
00:33And handle their matters in a positive manner.
00:36Punjab, let's take you to Lahore.
00:39There are 25 government universities there.
00:44It is a matter of deciding their vice-chancellors.
00:47Why is it not happening?
00:49And obviously, if a university's vice-chancellor is not present,
00:52then there are policy guidelines and administrative issues.
00:55It has a lot of impact on it.
00:57Hassan Hafeez, our representative, is with us.
00:59Let's ask him.
01:00Since when is this issue being delayed?
01:03Why is it so important?
01:05What are the reasons?
01:07And since when are these universities running without vice-chancellors?
01:11Hassan.
01:13Thank you very much, Mr. Khawar.
01:15This has become a big challenge for the government of Punjab.
01:18If we talk about the current situation,
01:21there are 25 universities that have to be appointed as vice-chancellors.
01:25Which is a big challenge for the government of Punjab.
01:2811 universities have been interviewed by the vice-chancellors' candidates.
01:32Which have been interviewed by the CM of Punjab, Dr. Maryam Nawaz.
01:37After 11 universities' vice-chancellors,
01:40the second phase is the interviews of 7 women's universities.
01:46The interviews are also going on.
01:48It has been 3 days since Madam CM has interviewed 11 to 12 universities.
01:55But no third phase has been decided yet.
01:58And let me tell you that the third phase will start later.
02:02In which general universities will be included.
02:04And the remaining 25 universities will be like this.
02:07So, the first group in which...
02:10Since when is this issue going on?
02:12I mean, even during the PDM government,
02:14or before that, the government of PTI,
02:17then later Mr. Chaudhry Parvez came.
02:18Since when is this...
02:19A lot of positions have been vacant for a long time.
02:21We are hearing the news, we are reading in the newspapers.
02:24Mr. Khawar, this was the previous government.
02:27If we talk about the history,
02:30in the past also,
02:31the day when the CM or Madam takes the interview,
02:35the notification is given after 3 hours.
02:38A problem has arisen here.
02:40Favoritism has come here.
02:41And a very worrisome thing happened that
02:43when the current Minister of Education
02:46announced in front of all the journalists
02:49that I have been offered crores of rupees for the appointment of the Vice-Chancellor.
02:54One candidate has offered him 2 crores.
02:57The other candidate has offered him 2 to 2.5 crores.
03:00Without taking the name, he announced this.
03:03Whose story we also published.
03:05And it was also published on ARY.
03:06And in such a situation,
03:09how will the current situation be?
03:12It just happened that the next day,
03:15there was a wave of concern among all the professors in Punjab.
03:19And a question mark has been put.
03:21If a minister is offered crores of rupees for the post of Vice-Chancellor,
03:26who is the Minister of Education,
03:27then what will happen to the next 25 universities?
03:31It is still the same situation that
03:33all the professors who have been interviewed,
03:35no one has been confirmed that
03:36which professor's turn will come.
03:38The search committees of the universities
03:40have also finalized the expectations of the Vice-Chancellor.
03:42Mr. Hassan Hafeez, my name is Hassan Ayub.
03:44I want to ask you one thing.
03:46This appointment of the Vice-Chancellor,
03:49does the Governor have any role in this?
03:52Is the appointing authority Governor of Punjab in this?
03:55Exactly.
03:56Mr. Hassan, this procedure is a long procedure
04:01in which the Governor of Punjab is the Chancellor of the University
04:04and he has a role.
04:05He has a post office role.
04:06Yes, he has a post office role.
04:07I wanted to clarify this.
04:09You said that three days have passed.
04:11Why hasn't the notification been made yet?
04:13Otherwise, it happens in an hour.
04:14So, two days ago, the Governor of Punjab,
04:17Khushdaman has passed away.
04:19And he is present in his village.
04:22And Chaudhary Nisar Ali Khan's sister-in-law,
04:25who has passed away,
04:26and she was also the mother-in-law of Sareem Haider.
04:28So, this is basically the basic reason.
04:30I think five or six names have been confirmed
04:33who were supposed to be appointed.
04:35Because he is not available,
04:37that is why this is not being signed.
04:38But I have solved this problem for you.
04:40But it is 100% coincidental with what you said.
04:43The importance of the Vice-Chancellor is so great
04:46that not even an hour should be delayed.
04:48Not even an hour. Seriously.
04:49Mr. Hassan, in this...
04:50Your future students, you have to look after them.
04:53You have to run the affairs of the university.
04:55They are very important.
04:56So, I completely agree with this.
04:57Mr. Hassan, respond to this.
04:58Yes, sir.
04:59Sir, I would like to say that
05:01the committee that has interviewed the CM of Punjab,
05:04in which the Chief Secretary of Punjab was present,
05:06the Minister, who is the Minister of Education,
05:10with whom the Health Secretary was present,
05:13a whole quorum has interviewed.
05:15And after the quorum has interviewed,
05:17the names have been sent to the Higher Education.
05:19Now, Higher Education says
05:21that until the directions of the Minister of Punjab do not come,
05:24we will not be notified.
05:26As Mr. Hassan said, this is a reason.
05:29But the names that have to be finalized have already been finalized.
05:33As per your statement,
05:35the Governor has not yet received the final signatures.
05:41Mr. Nagvi,
05:42ask a question or comment.
05:44Mr. Hassan, I would like to ask a small thing.
05:46The universities that have to become Vice-Chancellors,
05:49are these universities still closed?
05:52Or are the acting Vice-Chancellors working here
05:55and when a new Vice-Chancellor comes, he will not be charged?
05:58Or are they working? Tell me.
06:00Look, all these universities,
06:03the acting Vice-Chancellors who are working at Ad-hoc,
06:06meaning they are working,
06:08they are working,
06:09their system is running,
06:10no matter how long it takes to get a notification,
06:12it means that the educational institutions are working.
06:15Now, the Vice-Chancellor who has to come there,
06:17whether he comes in two days or four days,
06:19what difference does it make?
06:20The universities are running as they are running in Pakistan.
06:22Look, the difference is that the Vice-Chancellors are working.
06:24Mr. Nagvi, take care of the future.
06:26Mr. Nagvi, you must have studied in a university.
06:31Listen to me.
06:33The role of a Vice-Chancellor is not in the classes.
06:35Listen to me, listen to me.
06:37I am very lucky that I got a chance to study in Government College Lahore,
06:43now it has become a Government College University.
06:45Then I went to Punjab University.
06:47Sir, the Vice-Chancellor of a university or college
06:51has a very important principle.
06:54Your argument has come.
07:00Sir, you are right, but actors do not have those rights.
07:03What happened, Nagvi?
07:04Sir, we do not want to make Dialla a Chancellor,
07:06we are talking about the Vice-Chancellor.
07:07Mr. Nagvi.
07:08Sorry, Mr. Chaudhary.
07:09Mr. Chaudhary, this is very unusual.
07:12You seem to be reporting from the beginning.
07:16These are such matters.
07:18Let me tell you about America or Europe.
07:21Universities there are very independent.
07:23They run their own affairs.
07:25There is very little intervention of the government.
07:27Maybe there is a need for reforms here too.
07:30Mr. Chaudhary.
07:33This has happened many times before in governments too.
07:36That the Vice-Chancellor is a very important position in a university.
