Private edn institutions MPO registration soon No room for corruption in MPO enlistment: PM adviser
Thursday, 23 July 2009
The monthly payment order (MPO) registration of private educational institutions resumes soon under an integrated and time-befitting policy, after a long suspension since 2005 following lots of procedural flaws, reports UNB.
Prime Minister's Education, Social Development and Political Affairs Adviser Dr Alauddin Ahmed Wednesday announced the plan, saying that the MPO policy would hopefully be formulated within the first week of next month.
"The MPO registration of new private schools, colleges and madrasahs will resume soon after the formulation of the policy," Dr Alauddin Ahmed said this while talking to journalists after a meeting on the issues at the Education Ministry conference room Wednesday.
Dr Alauddin said they would submit a draft policy to the government within next seven working days.
He firmly said there would be no room for corruption and harassment in registering private educational institutions under MPO. "Those who will fulfill certain criteria will get registered."
He urged all those unnecessarily running for quick registration under MPO to have patience and not to get frustrated.
Replying to a question, Dr Ahmed said the entire registration process would be kept out of political considerations and influences, a common complaint prevalent so long.
MPO registration is a prerequisite for the teachers and employees of such private institutions getting monthly payments from government exchequer, and there has always been a rat race in different circles for availing of the facility through managing people in authority.
