The Director General (DG) of NADRA (National Database and Registration Authority) in Pakistan has been removed from his position over allegations of holding a fake degree. This decision has raised concerns about transparency in the government’s internal administrative matters.
Following an investigation into the DG’s educational credentials, it was discovered that his degree was forged, leading to his dismissal from the post. Government sources have stated that further investigations will take place to ensure such incidents are prevented in the future.
After this incident, steps have been initiated to appoint a new DG for NADRA, with an emphasis on ensuring that there is no incompetence or corruption within the leadership of the institution.
This incident raises questions regarding transparency in Pakistan’s public institutions and highlights the need for further accountability measures from the government.
