PTA’s DG enforcement becomes OSD

Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) in its current state of hierarchical tussle finds Sajjad Latif Khan, Director General enforcement, as Officer on Special Duty (OSD) with immediate effect from Friday.

Sajjad Latif had sent references to the Prime Minister Raja Parvez Ashraf informing him about the current state of uncertainty in the higher ranks of the authority. He said that officers in Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) were having difficulty finding proficient authority in the organization. Khan is said to be planning to file a case against his appointment in the court.

This order is the short-term result of the battle with Sajjad Latif Khan on one side and Member Finance and Member Technical on the other side. A while ago, Khan wrote to Member Finance that he should remain in his position and not exercise the authorities of the Chairman. It is to be noted that Member Finance is in a better standing in the organization as compared to Khan. Sajjad Latif is considered to be a supporter of the dismissed Chairman Farooq Awan. Sources report that Member Finance and Member Technical are gathering irregularities done by dismissed Chairman Farooq Awan and his team including Khan.

Sajjad Latif, in addition to being DG Enforcement was given additional charges of DG HR and DG Law during the short tenure of Farooq Awan. The operational terms of Member Finance and Member Technical are ending this year in February and March respectively. Let us see that who else falls into their wrath before the end of their terms.
