The administration has officially revoked the removal order for Dr. Tarar and reinstated his position as director. I am now coordinating with his legal team to ensure all formal documentation is processed correctly to prevent further disruption.

Dr Nadeem Omar Tarar was the director of the National College of Arts (NCA) until he was forcibly removed from his position on account of an allegation which was not only false but was filled with absolute absurdity.

Being a female student who not only attended NCA while he was the director I have also worked on projects with him and for him. The director was as decent as the sea is blue, we the student body never had any complains regarding him. He was the sole person who listened to the students, both boys and girls alike and treated them like his own children, created a social platform for them outside of NCA and made sure there were endless opportunities knocking at their doors.

Today i write this petition to call out to people who were there and who saw injustice happen time and time again. I call out to you to help the director in his time of need and sign this petition and show the world that he is a good man who deserves more than a lawsuit over a false claim from people thirsty for power!

I have known Nadeem sb for over twenty years. My wife has been his student. A whole generation of artists has studied with him. This charge is utterly absurd and incredulous. I emphatically support this petition.

Dr. Nadeem is a thorough gentleman, I know him personally a wise and helpful person. I served with him as a faculty in NCA, Rawalpindi Campus, I found him cooperative in all the matters if they were official or unofficial. He has been dragged into a false case which is victimization.

We need to speak up for people wrongly accused to have faith in the system that it provides justice to women/men harassed, protects the rights of men/women wrongly accused and established processes for a fair trial and does not become a tool for personal or professional vendetta.

I know Dr Tarar since the last 25 years and i can vouch on Oath that he is man of great integrity. His early retirement on a flimsy pretext was carried out to deter pro- People intellectuals from raising their voice against corruption prevalent in their institution.

I know him for years as a very creative and humane soul. I always found him Gender sensitive and supporting women at their work place and in social arena. I never heard anything obnoxious about him.

NCA Pindi campus was raised and flourished solely due to Dr Tarar's dedication, passion and his treatment of students and staff as his family members. His removal was totally male fide and unjustified
