Centralised Admission Policy (CAP), Karachi Colleges admission
Karachi Colleges admissions begin next month
Karachi, July 15, 2008: The process of admission to colleges in the first year
classes under the Centralised Admission Policy-2008 (CAP) begins in the first
week of August, said Prof Rafique Ahmed Siddiqui, the director-general of
colleges, Sindh.
He said that around 85,000 students will have to be
accommodated in the city's 123 colleges as the 31 higher secondary schools (13
for male and 18 for female students) which enrolled students last year had now
been excluded from the purview of the CAP-2008 on the instructions of the Sindh
Education Minister, Pir Mazhar-ul-Haq.
As such, he added, provision of
admission to the higher secondary schools was the prerogative of the
administrations of the higher secondary schools concerned.
Prof Siddiqui
was talking to newsmen at the Karachi Press Club where he was invited as guest
of honor at a ceremony to honour position-holders of Class X (general group)
annual examinations, 2008.
Pointing out that in all, there are 118
colleges (64 for male and 55 for female students) in the city, he said that four
colleges for women and one for male students would start functioning from the
ensuing academic session. These colleges are located at Orangi, Gizri, Azam
Basti, Manzooor Colony and Bihar Colony.
He said that the prospectus
containing admission forms would be available at various bank branches in the
city in the first week of August.
He said every student would have an
option of choosing a college of his/her choice from eight colleges on the basis
of their marks.
He hoped that the entire process of admission to Class XI
would be completed by the end of August and classes for the new session would
begin on Sept 1. However, he added, the classes for Class XII would begin in the
first week of August.
He said that all those students who had passed
their Secondary School Certificate (SSC)/Tech-nical Board/GCE (O'level) or
equivalent annual examinations-2008 would be eligible for
admission.
Those who had passed their examinations in the year 2007
(annual/supplementary) or five years earlier would also be eligible for
admission but on the condition that five marks for each year or gap would be
deducted from their total marks to determine their merit.

Sindh Agriculture University Tandojam employees on strike
Hyderabad: The employees of the Sindh Agriculture University
Tandojam continued their strike on Monday, staged a protest sit-in outside the
vice-chancellor block and formed a human chain.
A heavy contingent of
police was deployed on the university premises.
Speaking on the occasion
the protesters said that their movement would continue till the removal of the
vice-chancellor.
The PRO of the university said in a statement that the
employees were defaming the university and accused some elements of blackmailing
the poor employees into joining the strike.
The PRO said the union
leaders have crossed all limits of morality.
He claimed that only a few
years ago, the university could not pay even its electricity bills but now it
was standing on its own feet and the admissions had increased by 400 per
cent.
The executive body of the Sindh Agriculture University Teachers
Association at a meeting held here under the chairmanship of Dr Ameer Bux
Kalhoro has condemned the misbehaviour of the union leader with the dean of the
Faculty of Animals Husbandry and Veterinary Sciences and a member of the
university syndicate.
The meeting demanded of the university
administration to take strict action against the union
leader.
