'Students against secret agencies' presence at PU'
Lahore, June 07, 2008: Over 90 per cent students of the Punjab University (PU) have
opposed presence of "secret agencies" at the university while terming it a wrong
practice, reveals a survey conducted by PU chapter of the Insaf Students
Federation (ISF).
The findings of the survey were made public in a press
conference by ISF Punjab convener Ahmad Muaz, PU chapter convener Kamran Akram
Khan and general secretary Hafiz Farhat on Friday. The ISF office-bearers said
over 10,000 students of the Punjab University participated in the survey, which
was aimed at highlighting problems of the university's students so that they
could be addressed on priority basis. They said no other organisation had so far
conducted such a survey to bring to light students' problems. "The biggest issue
faced by the students is related to hostels as the boarding facility is not
being provided to students studying in the afternoon programmes," they said,
adding that the boarding students were deprived of the internet facility and
telecast of national news channels.
They said around 75 per cent
students had demanded both the facilities in hostels."Around 95 per cent
students expressed concerns over lack of transport facilities being provided by
the Punjab University while 100 per cent students expressed dissatisfaction over
affairs of university's canteens," they said, adding that over 90 per cent
students expressed concerns over
presence of secret agencies people at
the university and termed their presence a wrong practice. The News
