Errant official taken to task for the sake of discipline

Dated : 24 August 2018

Shahid Zia Cheema, an officer of the Ministry of Planning, Development and Reforms has been directed to report to the establishment wing of the Ministry . Action was taken on the basis of source report, indicipline, sheer lack of understanding of administrative working of the ministry. This is pertinent to mention that the order issued in this regard is self explanatory. The officer concerned has been continuously violating discipline on different occasions taking things in his hand. Inquiry is already underway against him on sheer violation of the discipline. Furthermore, the officer in question has written a letter without having knowledge about rules, competence and used slanderous language bypassing all norms. Hence, his removal from the post has been done in the interest of governance and discipline which has to prevail at all cost. Written source report is available against his violations of discipline despite serval notices. Official decorum has to be sustained and cannot be subservient to the whims of an official who lacks knowledge and is spoiling his efforts in inter personal issues instead of concentrating on his work. The secretary Planning has notified to all officers that discipline would be ensured at all cost as no organisation can succeed without discipline.
Orders of his removal from the post are attached with this press release.
