KARACHI: The Federal Urdu University for Arts Science and Technology (FUUAST) is suffering from mismanagement under the acting administration as the blue eyed Focal Person is utilizing public funds for his own interest on the behalf of acting Vice Chancellor and administration, Daily Times has reliably learnt. It is general consensus among the FUUAST’s faculty members and non teaching staff that the Focal Person of FUUAST, Muhammad Siddiq is involved in financial corruption since he was appointed as a lecturer in then Urdu College now FUUAST. The available documents with Daily Times reveal that since the inception of the FUUAST in 2002, Siddiq started his illegal activities in coordination with his senior colleagues. In 2002, HEC had given a project to FUUAST namely “Up gradation of Information Technology Department” for which he managed to get 8.5 million Rupees out of the project amount received from HEC but the audit is still pending while the unspoken competent authorities have forgot the issue. He had installed an IT system of FUUAST which is being used using for Medical, IT and Accounts. This IT system was actually provided by his brother and Mr Siddiq ignored the required procedures and submitted fake quotations because the beneficiary was his brother. This system was also much time higher than market price. In addition, he has visited Canada on a private passport for Ph.D study without taking Ex-Pakistan leave from the University under the HEC scholarship. Even after getting a scholarship from the University he did not completed his PhD from Canada. He is also taking Master in Science (MS) allowances from the University. The University provides MS allowances to employees after the completion of 18 years education but Mr Siddiq has 16 years of Masters in Computer Science from NED but he is not an MS but he is still receiving the allowance illegally. Many Vice Chancellors on the directives of HEC have stopped his MS allowance but he some how pressurizes the administration and gets it restarted for the last 10 years. He is also Head of Department (HoD) of the Computer Science but the Higher Education Commission has clear directives that Non Ph.D will not hold the positions of HoD, clearly violating the rules and regulations of HEC. He has appointed his family members in the University including his brother and wife in Computer Science department. Similarly, being Director Admission Siddiq enrolled thousands of students who were unqualified for admission. On this act, the then VC terminated him from Director Admission in 2012. Recently he has inducted few hospitals in medical panels of the University by taking millions of rupees as the earlier medical panel hospital is not paying him bribe from the medical bills of the staff. He also admitted his relatives for medical treatment on the expense of FUUAST. An estimate amount from the documents available in medical record, Mr. Siddiq has received around 20 million during last two years. When Daily Times contacted Mr Siddiq he told that some the FUUAST faculty members want to run the university by their own way. Therefore they are creating hurdles for management and him because he is supporting acting management. “I carry out my duty accordance to the rules of the university if someone has documented evidence he approach to the court” Muhammad Siddiq told adding that he is a responsible teacher of the university and he will continue his work even after the acting management.
