KARACHI: The Establishment Division has notified nomination of BS-20 officers for 103rd National Management Course (NMC) at National Management College Lahore. It may be mentioned here that Customs Today, in its recently published story, had suggested that the department should itself nominate the officers instead of asking for their consent.
The BS-20 officers of Pakistan Customs Service nominated for the course include M Nasir Khan, Member Customs Appellate Tribunal Islamabad and Manzoor Hussain Memon, Collector MCC Appraisement East, Karachi.
According to sources, M Nasir Khan is physically unfit and his medical report has been received at the FBR. Therefore, he may not attend the course.
Sources said that Manzoor Memon would also not join the course quoting Memon that he was not interested in promotion. However, he may not attend the course on “health ground”.
It may be mentioned here, that Grade-21 is not much desirable in Customs. There are a very few postings in Grade-21 including Chief Collector while there is only one Member Customs in FBR while other Members of the Board from Customs Group do not get ‘lucrative’ seats.
The IRS officers nominated for the course include Rukhsana Saeed Commissioner RTO-III, Karachi, Ghazanfar Hussain Commissioner RTO Sialkot, Ashfaq Ahmed Tunio Commissioner RTO Karachi, Farrukh Ansari Commissioner LTU Karachi, Mohammad Tariq Masood Chief FBR Islamabad, Attiya Naheed Hakeem Commissioner RTO Islamabad, Dr. Mohammad Ali Khan Commissioner LTU Karachi, and Saifullah Khan Commissioner Appeals-III Karachi.
