VCs resent cut in budgetary allocations
Islamabad: The vice chancellors/rectors of the public sector universities
expressed their extreme apprehension towards the budgetary cut imposed by the
government, which could result in huge increase in fees that would ultimately
lead to students' unrest.
According to a press release, they passed a
unanimous resolution for the urgent need to meet the prime minister in order to
apprise him of the gravity of the situation. They expressed their reservations
at the fourth vice chancellors' meeting held at a local hotel here Monday and
attended by 62 VCs/rectors from across the country.
In his address to the
heads of higher education institutions, Professor Dr Atta-ur-Rahman, Chairman
HEC, urged the VCs/rectors to generate their own resources in addition to their
reliance on government funding. He said that universities around the world do
not rely on public exchequer alone and have, over the years, found different
ways for fulfilling their financial needs. The chairman said that after their
meeting with Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani, the latter had directed the
finance secretary to issue funds allocated for higher education at the earliest.
"But the problem is that the finances are not available with the government," he
said.
Earlier, during a presentation on the current status of higher
education system, Dr Sohail Naqvi, Executive Director HEC, said that
universities have shown uninterrupted growth during the last six years. He said
the key challenges facing the higher education include access, quality and
relevance.
The VCs regretted the cut in the approved budgetary
allocations for the year 2007-08. They argued that the financial planning of the
universities had been worked out on the basis of the approved budget, however,
the unexpected reduction in the budgetary allocation has adversely affected the
operations of these institutions.
Some universities demanded increase in
the grants for establishment of their sub-campuses. Moreover, several mega
development projects including physical and technological infrastructure may
face closure due to non-availability of funds. The News
