Confusion persists over reopening of private schools
Rawalpindi: Parents were quite confused over the tussle that has been going on between private schools and Punjab Government over reopening of schools in Rawalpindi.

On Wednesday also, some of the private schools were closed because of the polling in PP-13 constituency and some schools were continuing with their regular classes.

Rawalpindi Association of Private Schools (RAPS) Public Relations Executive Tahmeena Malik said that there should be a clear cut notification regarding opening and closure of the schools. "Students as well as their parents are perturbed over the uncertain situation regarding the reopening of the schools. Some students are sent back home by the school administration and it is a very serious situation for the students because some use public transport, as parents don't know their whereabouts. The Punjab Government should give us a logical reason as why we should not open the schools as there is no flood in Rawalpindi or the schools would be used as shelter homes for IDPs etc. Even if we open the schools as we are law-abiding citizens, the Punjab Government should specify that as to how we would be able to make up the loss of the studies. How the students cope up their loss of these twenty days. There should be one uniform notification for all the schools, one morning all the schools should be closed and one morning they should all be open so that the owners, students and parents are at peace," she said.

The Punjab Government has issued orders to all public and private schools to open the schools on September 9, but some of the private schools are reluctant to follow the orders and have opened schools way before the due date.

Executive District Officer (Education) Malik Ashraf said that the private schools have filed a petition in Lahore High Court in this regard and they were also awaiting its decision. All the public schools are abiding by the notification orders, but some private schools are defying them. "The position would be much clear when the decision comes. Some private schools are openly violating the orders and have opened the schools, but we would take strict action against the violators and would use police force to close them down," he said.

Aasma Chaudhry said that her son studies at a private school at Tulsa Road. They were constantly calling the school whether the school was open or not because of the polling in Rawalpindi. "It was earlier told that school was closed and then it was opened. Its is highly frustrating for us as we have to get up early after 'sehri' and send the children to school and we are very disturbed if they tell us that the school is closed. There has to be a clear cut notification and all private schools should obey it," she said.

KU staffers continue protest
Karachi: A group of employees of the Karachi University (KU) continued their protest on Wednesday even after assurance by the university administration regarding the payment of 50 percent increase in the August 2010 salary with arrears for the month of July 2010 and 50 percent leave encashment.

The protesters stopped KU Point Service (Bus service), causing immense problems to students, especially in Ramazan. Some employees belonging to KU Employees Welfare Association rushed into KU Public Relations Office and misbehaved with Assistant PRO Farheen Zehra, forcing her not to send news that do not go in their favour. These employees had a meeting in the same office.

The university was presenting a deserted look, while not a single employee was observed in any office of the university, even to attend a phone call.

A paucity of funds at the Karachi University (KU) has sparked protest and unrest at the varsity, as hundreds of non-academic staff of the KU has been protesting for the last two days in favour of 50 percent increase in their salaries and Leave Encashment.

The protest was staged by KU Employees Welfare Association and Officers Welfare Association; the leaders of KU Employees Welfare Association during which Kabir Khan, Fareed Siddiqui and Aijaz Beg expressed their views on the occasion.

They were of the view that the university administration had failed to run the administration smoothly. They said that employees would not withdraw from their basic rights like 50 percent increase in salaries and leave encashment. The administration is trying to deprive employees of these fundamental financial rights, while the protest will be continued until KU accedes to the demand of 50 percent increase and leave encashment to its employees, they said.

It is pertinent to mention here that just after the protest of KU employees, KU Registrar Prof Dr Kaleem Raza Khan has already announced that the Vice Chancellors of all public universities in consultation with the Chancellor's secretariat were assured that the funds would be provided to the universities to ensure 50 percent increase in the salary of all university employees in Sindh.

He said, "In the light of this, KU Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Pirzada Qasim Raza Siddiqui is pleased to announce that all Karachi University employees will get 50 percent increase as announced by the Government of Pakistan in their August 2010 Salary with arrears for the month of July 2010.

It is to be noted here that Karachi University, grants maximum facilities to its employees and even in the present tough financial conditions, the Standing Committee has recommended to pay 50 percent leave encashment to employees from BPS-1 to BPS-16 and the remaining 50 percent will be paid later."

Employees Reject Proposal

President KU Employees Welfare Association Kabir Khan said that the protest will continue, while work will also be kept suspended. He said, "We need hundred percent leave encashment; deduction will not be accepted at any cost."

To a question, he said that the KU administration had taken the decision on the pressure of Karachi University Teachers' Society (KUTS) because teachers also need 50 percent increase in their salaries.

It may be last leave encashment
