LCWU students criticized administration over fee structure
Lahore: The BSc (Hons) students of Lahore College for Women University (LCWU)
staging a protest demonstration on Monday strongly criticised the
university administration for increase in fee. They staged the
demo outside the university campus on Jail Road. Traffic mess was also
witnessed on Jail Road and others adjacent roads for quite some time as
a result of the demonstration. The students chanted slogans against the
university administration and demanded withdrawal of the decision
regarding increase in fee and its collection on semester basis. The
protesting students told the reporters that earlier around Rs 14,000
were being charged on annual basis from the students while after the
increase the total fee per year was over Rs 20,000 per student of
different BSc (Hons) programmes. They demanded the government
take notice of the situation and provide relief to them as the increase
would certainly lead to financial problems for their families. LCWU
Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Bushra Mateen was not available for comment.
However, when contacted, the university registrar, Shaista Vine, said
the university finance and planning committee as well as varsity
syndicate had approved the increase in fee due to increasing inflation. She
said the university had no other source of income except the students'
fee, adding that after increase in the number of faculty members and
constant increase in prices of different items, the increase in fee was
inevitable.
