Instead, the bureau has asked the chief secretary to take action on the matter. Presenting a serious charge sheet against the PTI government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the Provincial Inspection Team (PIT) confirmed the Elementary and Secondary Education Foundation's (ESEF) report on fake schools and fake students, and It was revealed that not only the number of out-of-school children (out of school children) is contrary to the claim, but 74% of the money spent has been lost.current world news
The PIT in its report called the provincial government's project of enrollment of children out of school a failure. The report revealed that victims of the scandal have also been impacted by public schoolchildren in the project, as many students from these public schools were enrolled in private schools to receive free uniforms and books.current world news
The report said that the project also affected the policy of increasing enrollment in public schools. The PIT's inquiry report was submitted to the Chief Minister in the second half of last year, recommending that not only 24% of Mansehra's Iqrao Promotion Education Voucher Scheme (IFTVS) be disrupted in schools The amount of Rs. 94.9 lakh should be recovered, but the matter should be sent to NAB to inquire into the working pattern of these schools in all the provinces so as to ensure that the state exchequer is not going into one's pocket.
However, the NAB, which is targeting opposition leaders and now the Bureau has arrested Jung Group's editor-in-chief in a fake case, has told the PTI government on the issue of fake schools that the "authorized authority" The inquiry is being closed following the decision.
The NAB has previously alleged that it has closed its eyes on PTI leaders' issues and targeted only opposition leaders and the media. There is a strange contradiction in NAB's letter, which is available to The News, on one side it has been announced that the inquiry is being stopped and on the other hand, the KP government has done wrong measures in the Accra voucher scheme. Has also been identified.
According to the letter, during the inquiry into the matter, the following occurred: ...
1) The number of private schools claimed in Mansehra district; the number of students enrolled under vouchers was much lower.
2) According to the EEF Guidelines, the situation was not satisfactory with regard to the condition of some schools, the quality of the building, the number of students enrolled, the basic facilities provided to the students, etc. The revised IFTVS proposals provided extraordinary facilities, even allowing unregistered and newly established schools to work on the scheme.
3) There was no suitable mechanism for checking voucher students studying in private schools on a quarterly basis.
4) There was no arrangement for checking the details of the voucher students on a quarterly basis, including things like b-forms, biometrics and parental ID cards. A specific / authoritative mechanism is needed to identify voucher students.
5) There is no correlation in the data collected by people on daily wages during the survey of enrolled students.
6) The Code also found several flaws in other areas, including the lack of regular monitoring by the EEF during the survey and then the absence of an EEF monitoring staff in the district. Lack of supervision, etc. After admitting the above-mentioned errors, the NAB informed the decision to close the inquiry.
Interestingly, the level of corruption and fraud was made clear in the PIT report, which was given to the NAB, though the provincial department of statistics had confirmed with DPO endorsement that 23% out of school in Mansehra. 70% of the students were enrolled but when confirmed, only 4% 183% were present.
The PIT also noted a massive change in the figures. The KP government's own report prepared by PIT said that 24% of schools in Mansehra were financed by Rs 26 lakh so that IFTVS should be provided to out-of-school children during the financial year 2017-18. The project provides free education, free books and uniforms to children with enrollment.
However, when the PIT officially confirmed, the actual number of out-of-school enrollments was very low, which resulted in a loss of Rs 19 lakh from the amount of Rs 26 lakh. ؍ IFTVS accounts for 74% of the money provided to schools.
A total of Rs 6.9 billion was to be spent under the project to provide money to IFTVS in 25 districts of KP. In 6% of the districts, the enrollment of students during 2017 was 41% thousand; for 2018, the target for all districts was 84%. The PIT inquiry report termed the project a failure story and stated that the idea of the Voucher Scheme project was first introduced in 2014, with a limited scope and limited to only five Union Councils in Peshawar. ۔
After several reviews by the Board of Directors, the project scope was extended to the entire province, bringing the total amount to 6.9 billion.
