PU & KU teachers denounce MUO
LAHORE, Aug 9: The Punjab University Academic Staff Association (PUASA)
and teachers of various universities protested against the Model University
Ordinance (MUO) outside the press club on Wednesday. PUASA secretary Dr Mumtaz
Ahmad Salik said the government wanted to implement the MUO in Balochistan
University and academic staff associations would protest against this. He said
the Balochistan governor wanted to implement the MUO in Balochistan
universities. He said all academic staff associations would demonstrate on
August 18, 2007, against the suspension orders of the teachers of Balochistan
universities. PUASA secretary Asmatullah said the MUO would block the entry of
poor people into government universities. He said the governor had assured that
the MUO would not be implemented, but the suspension of teachers was a
contradiction. He said the suspended teachers were against the MUO. Daily times
Karachi University
Karachi, The Teachers' Union of the University of Karachi held a
meeting here on Wednesday in which the decision of imposing the Model University
Ordinance in the Balochistan University has been condemned.
The KU
teachers demanded that the decision should be taken back
immediately.
They stressed the fact that "by imposing such a law on a
university in Balochistan, the government is trying to distinguish between
universities."
The union also demanded that the vice-chancellor of the
university, a retired army officer, be removed from his post.
The union
urged the Higher Education Commission's Chairman Dr Attaur Rehman, to take
action against this decision. Dawn
