President of Pakistan Dr Arif Alvi on Friday directed the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) to reconsider the appointment of a candidate from Ex-FATA who had been denied employment, despite securing the first position in the written examination. The FBR had rejected the candidate on the ground that his degree was issued to him late by his university due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and he was not in possession of the degree on the cut-off date. The president observed that FBR had ignored the university’s categorical statement on his degree stating that the complainant was eligible for admission in any university or job from June/July 2021 as his degree was issued late in June 2022 due to COVID-19 which was beyond human control and was not the fault of the student.
