Karachi, Tanzeem-e-Asatza Pakistan (TAP) University of Karachi (KU) has roundly condemned the Higher Education Commission (HEC) for its actions, that they believe are tantamount to killing education in Pakistan. They appealed to President Zardari to bail out the universities from the current financial crunch.
The KU teachers vented their anger against the HEC in a protest demonstration held in front of the administration building. A number of teachers from various departments of the university attended the demonstration, and heard their colleagues speaking against the policies of HEC.
Dr Rafeeq Alam Khan, Department of Pharmacology Chairman, criticised the cut in the aid for the KU that had produced a strong reaction amongst teachers. “The reduction in the grant has resulted in the dwindling supply of lab equipments and chemicals, thus decreasing research opportunities. The KU administration is adopting policies which are not conducive to the welfare of the university. Two finance directors are eating our resources, while academic activities are affected”, Dr Khan said.
President TAP Dr Junaid Sagheer Siddiqui, Dr Hisamuddin Mansoori, Prof Ishaq Mansoori and Dr Shafeequr Rahman were also present at the occasion.
