KARACHI: The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) is holding 103rd National Management Course (NMC) at National Management College, Lahore.
The FBR has written a letter for the nomination of the officers of grade 20 and in this regard the officers who are working in grade 20 have been also asked to give their consent before their names be forwarded to the Establishment Division.
It may be mentioned here that for promotions in grade 21 the completion of NMC is a mandatory requirement and those officers who are in pipeline for the promotions have been asked to give their consent.
Experts in the field have suggested that instead of taking consent, the FBR should directly ask these officers according to their seniority list, with a view to enabling others to enjoy their posting on important seats.
Even in the current situation, many recently promoted officers are still working in their Own Pay Scale (OPS) and awaiting their postings according to their qualifications.
Those who have been asked to give their consent included Muhammad Nasir Khan, Member Technical , Customs Appellate Tribunal (Bench-I), Islamabad, Manzoor Hussain Memon, Collector, MCC Appraisement (East), Karachi, Muhammad Asif Marghoob Siddiqui, Director, Directorate of I&I-FBR, Karachi, Ziauddin Wazir, Chief (HRM), FBR (Hqrs.), Islamabad, Zeba Hai Azhar, Collector, MCC Islamabad, Suraiya Ahmed Butt, Collector MCC Port Muhammad Bin Qasim, Karachi, Saud Imran Ahmed, Director PCA, Lahore, Muhammad Saleem, Collector, MCC-Appraisement (West), Karachi, Dr. Naeem Khan, Director, Directorate of Transit Trade, Peshawar, Syed Muhammad Tariq Huda, Collector, MCC (Preventive), Karachi, Zahoor Akhter Raja, Director, Directorate of IPR Enforcement (North), Islamabad, Agha Shahid Majeed Khan, Collector, MCC Exports, Port Muhammad Bin Qasim, Karachi, Akhlaq Ahmed Khattak, Chief, Customs Wing, FBR (Hqrs.), Islamabad and Dr. Arsalan Subuctageen, Chief, Customs Win, FBR (Hqrs.), Islamabad.
Meanwhile, it has been observed that the officers working on prized posts have mostly declined in the past to attend the NMC and this time too they are likely to follow suite.
