Finally, I agree with Klasra on something. He is right on on two points. First, this college is meant for the rich and powerful. Second, how the hell do you determine the merit for K2 that accurately except for selling the exam in advance. It is hard to believe that this Principal guy ran into influence thing for the first time. I think he is making up this list after his contract was not renewed. He seems to be pretty aged and somewhat fragile. If I were to make any decision on merit, I might keep him as a teacher (which he would probably not agree to) but certainly not as a Principal. I really wonder about the vaunted merit slogan of Ch. Sarwar himself. I don't think he should have hired this guy as a Principal, in the first place, four years ago.
Disclaimer: I am nowhere near the Aitchisonian crowd, far from it, I went to those famous taat schools which would even run out of usable taats many times.
