After extending their services to Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) for three years, seven Pakistan Air Force (PAF) officers have returned to report to their respective departments on completion of their deputation term.
A PIA spokesperson on Wednesday confirmed that the officers had left the national airlines. He said PIA had temporarily given the same charge to other officers, adding that it did not make any further requests to PAF for further appointments.
Chief Executive PIA, Air Marshal (Retd) Arshad Malik, on his appointment at PIA, brought with him nine PAF officers. These officers were later posted on key managerial positions at the airline on a three-year deputation.
Six of them, Air Commodore Khalid-ur-Rehman, Air Commodore Jibran Saleem Butt, Air Commodore Shahid Qadir, Wing Commander Hafiz Tahir Mehmood, and Wing Commander Muhammad Asim Khan have reported to their respective institutions after completing the deputation term, the spokesperson said.
Special Wing Commander Kamran Anjum had been called back ahead of the completion of his term due to harassment allegations against him, he added.
He said Chief HR Air Commodore Amir Altaf was still in service, as his deputation period would end in March this year.
That is admirable. It is Arshad Malik ex PAF employee who must leave PIA immediately in order to streamline the PIA affairs.
By streamline u mean on corrupt and mismanaged line . Afssos
You mean in the same white elephant state
You have very critically explained the requirement of Arshad Malik departur but what after that? Are you sure things will not get worse later on?
Headline is very pathetic and hugely contradicts with what is written in article.
Paak Fizaya ka haq mara ja raha hai unko PIA se nikal ke. Agar PIA pe kisi ka haq hai to woh Paak Fizaiya hai
Jaisay baqi saray civilian mehkmon per army walon ka haq hai.
