Central admission policy of colleges (CAP)
CAP to revise admissions' policy
Karachi, June 12, 2008: Changes in the merit criteria of the central admission policy of colleges (CAP)
are on the cards as a summary in this regard has already been sent to the
Secretary Education.
It has been
learnt that the Director Colleges, Sindh, Rafique Siddiqi has sent a summary to
the Secretary Education, Rizwan Memon for approval after which there will be
changes in the merit system of the CAP.
When contacted Siddiqi,
he said that "details in this regard cannot be made public unless they are
finalised by the Secretary Education." He added that "it is up to the higher
authorities to decide in favour of or against the summary which will be
announced once it is finalised." He also said that the general public will be
informed through the media about any possible developments in connection with
CAP once the process is completed.
CAP was introduced some eight years
ago and it surpassed the previous system under which all the powers were with
the college administration and the principals. Before the introduction of CAP,
there were a large number of complaints regarding the admission of certain
candidates without any merit in the top colleges of Sindh. However, CAP brought
some transparency in the admission of candidates on a merit basis in the
first-year of college. The News

Stricter visa policies for foreign madrassah students
Karachi: The stay of thousands of foreign students studying at madrassahs
in the country is under threat again, now that the visa policy has reportedly
been tightened by the government of Pakistan. The step is attributed to what
officials referred to as "increasing terrorist activity" in the
country.
Insiders commenting on the step said that foreign students going
back home during winter vacation would not be issued visas. Moreover, the visas
od students whose term was expiring would also not be extended.
This has
caused anxiety among students, because they will then be penalised for
overstaying in the country. The government, officials said, was under immense
pressure from the US to get the "madressah issue" resolved. The US government is
of the view that Islamic clerics in Pakistan are the main source of
disturbances, especially in tribal areas.
The Sheikh-ul-Hadis and
administrator of Binnoria University International, Mufti Mohammed Naeem said,
however, that Pakistan was identified as an Islamic country only because of
religious seminaries and Ulema. In his view, madressahs build character and
provide education in order to make students good human beings.
He also
refuted the allegation levelled by Interior Minister Rahman Malik wherein the
latter had blamed madressahs for terrorism. He said that the present government
was continuing the policy of the previous one.
Naeem also requested that
the government soften the visa policy for foreign students. Thousands of foreign
students studying at madressahs are a lucrative source of revenue, and are an
honour for the country, because they return to their countries as Pakistan's
ambassadors, Naeem maintained. The News

"Yes, it should have been done lot early but unfortunately not. Pakistan is reknowned Muslim Country because of these Madrassah or extremist clerics. Actually they were against Pakistan even before its creation. It was Quaid-e-Azam who made this islamic country, who was quoted as ************ by those muslim clerics ."
