1994/2025 Const. P. Ghulam Murtaza Lahbar (Petitioner) V/S Province of Sindh & Others (Respondent)
Sindh High Court
Bench: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon(Author), Hon'ble Mr. Justice Zulfiqar Ali Sangi
Order Date: 07-APR-26
In the circumstances of the case, we are of the considered view that the appointment of Respondent No.2 as Vice Chancellor of respondent university was made through a lawful process under the applicable statutory framework, and no violation of mandatory eligibility criteria has been established. The requirement of a PhD degree was not an essential statutory condition at the relevant time and cannot be applied retrospectively. The appointment/continuation of Respondent No.3 as Registrar, being under consideration and subject to statutory processes, does not suffer from such patent illegality as to warrant interference under Quo Warranto jurisdiction. Prima facie no mala fide, illegality, or jurisdictional defect has been demonstrated which would justify the exercise of constitutional jurisdiction by this Court under Article 199 of the Constitution. 15.???Consequently, the instant Constitutional Petition, being devoid of merit, is hereby dismissed along with pending application(s), with no order as to costs.Full judgment text for this case is not yet available on Pakistan Law Reports.
