LAHORE (Web Desk) – The so-called ‘biggest’ IT company of Pakistan named AXACT was alleged of being involved in the biggest scam in the history of educational fraud on Monday. It was reported by the prestigious newspaper of United States, New York Times, that the company was running hundreds of websites representing ghost universities that offered distant learning and sold degrees all over the world.
The article was written after the detailed research and deep investigation through all the universities’ websites run by AXACT group. Though the AXACT group denied all the accusations in their response to the report, the credibility of the group has been greatly damaged.
It is worth mentioning that the group had launched a television network in Pakistan with the name of ‘Bol’ around 2 years ago and some really big names of the Pakistan media have joined the network since. The AXACT group offered big salaries and perks to Bol employees with an office furnished luxuriously to work in. AXACT group has hired senior journalists and giving them their heavy salaries even before the launch of ‘Bol’ on television.
It was a question in the minds of many that what is the source of money coming in a TV channel which has never been on-air and still able to pay millions of rupees as salaries to their employees for around two years, but now it seems that the world knows from where all the money is coming in.
Many famous journalists and other media persons had so much to say on social media over the news. Here are some tweets showing the serious and funny reactions of the people after the report.
