Punjab Schools Department Makes Large-Scale Officer Transfers

The Punjab School Education Department made a substantial restructuring across the province on Tuesday, announcing significant transfers and postings of senior officials.

In a move that could signal shifts in administrative control, Mudassar Riaz, the Secretary of the Punjab School Education Department, issued a notification detailing these changes. Under his directive:

Nazir Hussain, who headed the CEO education for Lahore, has been reassigned as District Education Officer (DEO) in Mianwali.

Simultaneously, Tariq Mahmood, who managed the CEO Education in Rawalpindi, was transferred to the leadership role in Lahore. His departure from Rawalpindi comes with immediate effect.

Another notable change includes Muhammad Yaseen Khan, formerly at the CEO Education for Wazirabad, being shifted to Rawalpindi. At the same time, Asif Masood is posted as the new CEO for Wazirabad.

On the other hand, Irshad Nazar Abbas was appointed as the new CEO in Rajanpur, while Aqila Intikhab Khan’s services were withdrawn from the Education Department for Jhang province.

In a different move, Tanveer Ahmed has been tasked with leading the Education section in Jhang. Malik Tariq Abbas, who had served as DEO Mianwali, was removed from his position effective immediately.

These alterations appear to reflect potential realignments within the department, likely driven by performance reviews or strategic planning efforts aimed at improving educational quality and management efficiency across Punjab’s diverse regions.
