81 LLM students face loss of year
KARACHI, April 16(Dawn): The future of 81 students of Sindh Muslim Government
Law College, Karachi, hangs in the balance as the University of Karachi has
refused to recognize them as eligible candidates for examination.
The
students told PPI that the S. M. Law College had granted admission to 181
students in LLM previous year but the University of Karachi accepted only 100 of
them. The university refused to let the remaining 81 take the
examination.
The students of LLM Part-I, batch 2006-07 maintained that
they had got admission as per the prescribed rules and regulations and paid all
fees but now the college principal told them the KU had not accepted admissions
of 81 students.
The students said the KU decision was not fair as the
last year, it had allowed 200 LLM students to appear in the
examination.
They have already appealed to the KU vice-chancellor and
other education authorities for justice but without any response so
far.
They stated that they had attended their classes regularly and
fulfilled all other academic formalities as per the rules of the college, adding
that there was no justification to bar them from taking examination.
They
appealed to the authorities concerned to help resolve the problem and save their
precious academic year.
