Rawalpindi-The internally displaced students from restive areas of NWFP here on Wednesday staged a protest demonstration against the Punjab government for providing them inadequate facilities during their stay in the city.
The students from Malakand, Bajaur Agency, Mohmand Agency and Waziristan Agency, who are studying in the Vocational Training Institute (VTI), Rawalpindi, gathered in front of the ‘Jang’ building along Benazir Bhutto Road and chanted slogans against the provincial government.
They alleged that the Punjab government promised to provide them education on scholarship in a healthy environment, but unfortunately there was no facility where they were residing. They said that the menu of the hotel, where they were provided accommodation was also substandard.
Rehmanullah Wazir, a displaced student, said that there were around 220 students living in a hotel on government expenses and getting vocational training from the VTI. “We are forced to live in an unhealthy environment and are provided inferior quality food,” he added.
The protesters demanded of the Punjab government to fulfil its promises to provide good living environment and food to them during their stay in the VTI.
