The appellants asked the tribunal to take notice of undue delay regarding their promotion by the board and issue necessary directives to the board in their cases.
The appellants had prayed the tribunal to hold speedy hearing of their complaints and dispose them office at the earliest in order to bring justice to them.
Ishtiaq Ahmed and Dr Nazir Saeed adjourned hearing of four implementation matters filed by Waseem Iqbal, Anjum Waheed and Said Hussain. These cases were filed recently and no objection was filed by the department in this regard.
