Kuts rejects syndicate proposals
Karachi: The Karachi University Teachers' Society (Kuts) has strongly
criticised the university syndicate for recommending some changes in the rules
of appointment of lecturers, which, according to the society, are against the
university's stated regulations and interests of teachers' community. In
its executive council meeting held on Monday, Kuts passed a unanimous
resolution, condemning the recent move of some syndicate members who had
proposed some changes in appointment rules for lecturers in the last meeting of
the syndicate held on Aug 29. It may be mentioned here that some senior
teachers, who are members of the syndicate as well, suggested in the last
meeting that the rules for the appointment of lecturers be changed. They
suggested that a PhD should not be allowed to apply and an applicant should be
first division holder with 70 per cent marks in both bachelors and masters.
This created anger in the teachers' community when the minutes of the
meetings were became available to them on Saturday. The text of the
minutes, however, is confusing - at one place it says that the suggestions were
discussed and at another place it says that the suggestions were approved.
The three Kuts members, who are part of the syndicate, had to face
severe criticism from their colleagues at the Monday's meeting. The
meeting presided over by Dr Abid Husnain, acting Kuts president, requested
syndicate members to reject these proposals in the next meeting. The
Kuts members observed that the suggestions were "completely irrational" and that
they did not merit any discussion.

Delay in release of funds for PhD plan
Hyderabad, Oct 6: University of Sindh (SU) Vice-Chancellor Mazharul Haq
Siddiqui has deplored inordinate delay in release of funds to
facilitate faculty to do PHD in foreign countries, but hoped that the
new HEC chairman will remove hurdles in the release of the funds.
The VC was speaking at the inaugural session of a three-day
international symposium on biotechnology organized by the Institute of
Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering of the SU in collaboration with
the HEC and the National Commission on Biotechnology at the Jamshoro
campus on Monday. Scholars from different parts of the
country as well as Iran and Russia are participating in the symposium
whose inaugural session was also attended by HEC chairman Dr Jawed
Leghari. The VC expressed concern over delay in release of
funds for foreign scholarships, and said that recently the Central
Development Working Party had approved 69 scholarships, but funds had
not been released yet. Mr Siddiqi said that the university
had been sending its faculty to those countries where expenditure of
higher education was subsidized, and expressed the hope that Mr Leghari
would ensure early release of the funds. The VC congratulated
Dr Laghari, a graduate of the SU, on his appointment as the HEC
chairman, and expressed the hope that he would strive to develop
universities of the country on modern lines. The HEC
chairman said that the commission had provided a software to
universities to check and prevent plagiarism in research. He
said that scrutiny of research work through the software had been
made mandatory. Dr M. Umer Dahot, director of the
institute, highlighted the aims and objectives of the symposium. Dawn
