IJT nazims to be expelled from PU
LAHORE, April 19(Dawn): Following the alleged hooliganism and disruption of
Pharmacy Fair by Islami Jamiat Tulaba activists, the Punjab University Deans'
committee on Wednesday decided that any student, who would be nominated as IJT
nazim in any department or college or claims to be holding the political office
will be expelled from the varsity.
The committee also decided that such
action would be taken without issuance of any show-cause notice as it was
tantamount to running a parallel administration in the varsity.
According
to a news release, the committee took the decision at an emergent meeting
chaired by VC Arshad Mahmood.
The body authorised the PU vice-chancellor
to take strict disciplinary action against the `trouble-makers and hooligans',
who had disrupted the fair and damaged varsity property worth Rs1
million.
The committee passed a unanimous resolution and expressed
complete solidarity with a senior teacher of College of Pharmacy, whose family
was allegedly harassed by the Islami Jamiat Tulaba activists on
telephone.
It also condemned the IJT activists for manhandling another
pharmacy teacher, and using abusive language against varsity faculty members and
female students of the pharmacy college.
The committee also passed a
resolution, reiterating that no political activity would be permitted on the PU
campuses.
The deans, who attended the meeting are: Prof Dr Muhammad Arif
Butt, Prof Dr Mujahid Kamran, Prof Shaista Sonnu Siraj ud Din, Prof Dr Dil
Muhammad Malik, Prof Dr Samar Fatima, Prof Dr Nayyar Raza Zaidi, Prof Dr Shahida
Husnain, Prof Dr Liaqat Ali, IBA director Prof Dr Muhammad Ehsan Malik, College
of Pharmacy acting principal Prof Dr Bashir Ahmad, College of Earth and
Environmental Sciences principal Prof Dr Iftikhar Husain Baloch, Students Affair
advisor Prof Chaudhry Nazir Ahmad, Resident Officer-I Zahid Karim Khan I and

MESSAGE: "Its nonsense! why are they shattering student community every where? specially one with Islamic background. these musical programs should be crushed at least at campuses.They should know that they cannot stop student power.students are future of nation.they should have given right to elect their representatives at University n departmental level. If teachers say theyve been beaten by students,what they were doing at musical program.v should feel shame of such people n not say them teachers."
