Professional degree legal meaning, translation and judicial precedents.
Meaning & Judicial Interpretation: (اردو مفہوم اور قانونی تشریح)
Engineering Council described that B.Tech (Hons) was not similar to B.E./B.Sc. Engineering but it could be considered as parallel to degree of B.E./B.Sc. Engineering
Both the degrees were of distinct disciplines of knowledge in field of engineering and technology but for the purpose of service, seniority and promotion, they were considered equally
Entire record produced by Higher Education Commission and Pakistan Engineering Council was silent regarding declaring B.Tech (Hons) not equivalent to B.E./B.Sc. Engineering for the purpose of admission and further education
Both the degrees related to science in the area of engineering under the law
Only competent authority to declare status of degree was Pakistan Engineering Council but authorities failed to produce any record through which it could be ascertained that B.Tech (Hons) was not equivalent to B.E./B.Sc. Engineering
Petition was allowed accordingly.
