Aitchison College Principal Michael Thompson on Monday resigned from his post over alleged political interference by Federal Minister Ahad Cheema’s family. The Aitchison College Principal maintained that he denied the request for a fee waiver, but the Governor House Secretariat used its authority to issue a notification waiving the fee. Michael Thompson also announced leaving Pakistan in protest. He informed the college staff in a letter that he would be leaving his position as principal on April 1 and that he would not be participating in any management or admissions activities.
