PU Jhelum Campus discussed

PU students decry bike theft incidents
Lahore, Feb 03: Punjab University students staged a protest demonstration and threw traffic out of gear for hours on Wednesday shortly after the police resorted to aerial firing to disperse them.

The students were demanding measures to stop motorcycle theft on the campus.

Dozens of PU students gathered on the Lahore Canal near New Campus underpass after evening to register their protest against the increasing incidents of motorcycle theft on the campus. They also sought proper security for themselves.

The protesters blocked two sides of the road and raised slogans against the university management. There were reports of minor clashes between the police and protesters when the latter refused to clear the road for traffic. Police chased the students and used force to disperse them.

Situation remained tense in the area for more than two hours, forcing the motorists to wait for the ‘drop scene’, witnesses said.

Long queues of vehicles were seen from the New Campus to Ferozepur Road and Johar Town during the protest.

Islami Jamiat Tulaba Punjab University Nazim Zubair Safdar said the students wanted to register a peaceful protest for half an hour against poor security on the campus. He said several motorcycles had been stolen from the university premises for the last one month, but the university administration was not ready to listen to students.

Safdar said police resorted to aerial firing when students were demanding action against the thieves. No road was blocked at that time, he added.

Punjab University Resident Officer-I Javed Sami said IJT blocked the road for traffic without any justification and added that students did not inform the university administration about the motorcycle theft.

Muslim Town SHO Shoaib Khan denied allegations of aerial firing.

UoE syndicate: A meeting of the University of Education’s syndicate called to decide the fate of two faculty members who were terminated by the vice-chancellor on multiple charges, remained inconclusive on Wednesday.

The meeting chaired by Vice-Chancellor Prof Farhat Saleem discussed in detail a report submitted by the Punjab government’s probe committee comprising two vice-chancellors.

Earlier, the committee had probed the matter and identified the termination of two senior faculty members questionable and abrupt.

The VC argued that she sacked faculty members Dr Anwaarul Rehman Pasha and Dr Shaheen Pasha on charges of unsatisfactory performance, non-compliance, instigating students, and doing politics instead of performing their academic duties.

The syndicate will discuss the report in its next meeting as well. Dawn

BEd woman learns a hard lesson
Attock: A BEd degree holder has been appointed as sanitary worker on daily wages in Tehsil Municipal Administration (TMA) Attock, it has been learnt.

Syeda Shaiq Tasleem, a mother of two children, had applied for the post due to financial constraints and prolonged unemployment. Ms Tasleem, who is also doing MA in Education as a private candidate, has joined the duty, sources in the TMA said.

However, the TMA has not yet issued the final list of successful candidates even about two weeks after holding interview, causing great disappointment among applicants.

The sources said the delay was due to infighting among some ruling political elements who were using their influence to get their people appointed on the 112 posts of Class IV on regular basis. The posts included sanitary workers and tubewell operators, etc.

A number of candidates on condition of anonymity have already expressed the fear that candidates recommended by politicians would be given preference in the recruitment.

When contacted, TMO Mubarik Ali, who is also chairman of the recruitment committee, confirmed that Syeda Shaiq had been appointed as a sanitary worker on daily wages.

She said she had been offered the job on humanitarian ground and owing to her financial problems, adding the decision on giving her a permanent class IV job had been delayed.

He said the final list of other candidates was being prepared and may be issued at the end of this month.

He refuted the impression of any political interference and said the recruitment would be made in a very transparent and on merit. Dawn
