Punjab Governor accepts Thomson’s resignation 

LAHORE: Governor Punjab Baligh ur Rehman has accepted the resignation of Michael A. Thomson principal of Aitchison College Lahore.

Sources at the Governor's House, Amina Imran has been appointed as the acting principal of Aitchison College in place of Michael A. Thompson.

The Governor of Punjab has also approved the fee waiver policy, according to which, if the student moves to another city for 3 years, he will get a fee waiver of up to 50 percent.

It may be recalled that last month the principal of Aitchison College informed the staff of his resignation through a letter, saying that the biased actions of the Governor's House had damaged the governance and management of the school.

Michael A. Thompson added in the letter that there is no room for politics and nepotism in the school, and will not play any role in management and admissions after April 1.

On the other hand, Governor Punjab Baligh ur Rehman strongly denied the allegations of Principal Aitchison College and said that Michael A. Thomson was receiving a salary of 4 million, which has been audited.

He further said that Principal Aitchison College used to take more than 100 vacations in a year, this tactic has been adopted by Principal Aitchison College to avoid inquiries.
