of Management Sciences (IMSciences) Director Dr. Naseer Ali Khan said on Tuesday that after a meeting of all vice chancellors with Higher
Education Commission (HEC) and discussion on different approaches regarding the
students from the restive areas, it had been decided that students of Malakand
University and Kanju Medical College would be shifted to the UoP and KMC to save
their academic career. "The hostels of Islamia College would be used to
house these students after the end of ongoing intermediate examinations while
the teachers would be accommodated in the different guesthouses," he
said. He said, at present, 1,600 students including 200 girls were
enrolled in Malakand University, while 350 students were studying in Kanju

the students, who were in Peshawar, would be enrolled in different schools of
the university, which would be closed 20 days ahead of summer
vacations. He said girls would study in University Model School, while
boys would go to other schools. He said they had proposed to set up
schools in IDPs camps and university students would teach them, adding the HEC
had been requested for funding in this regard. He said IMSciences had
waived fees of 60 students from troubled areas and declared that they would be
housed in its hostels free of cost, adding the UoP had also waived fees of 1,000
students. He said their meeting with the NWFP CM was scheduled for
Wednesday. He said they had asked the government that the camps he run by their
students, who would volunteer to take care of IDPs and do their
registration. He said teams of students would leave for camps in the
morning and return in the evening. He said the KMU was sending medical
teams treat the IDPs at camps. "It was need of the hour that these people (IDPs)
do not think that they have been let down and we must win the battle of hearts
for them," Naseer added.
