Mehran University Teachers observe black day
HYDERABAD, Sept 6: The Mehran University Teachers Association (MUTA) on
Wednesday observed 'black day' in protest against what it termed as illegal
interference by the Higher Education Commission in the universities'
affairs.
The protesting teachers who wore black armbands and hoisted
black flags on buildings demanded that the HEC should refrain from interfering
in the universities' affairs and stop what they called a policy of blackmailing
through threats of cuts in or freeze on funds.
They demanded upgradation
of all the university teachers including non-PhD professors and associate
professors and called for an end to the appointment of retired generals or
bureaucrats to the office of vice chancellor.
They said that the
association would observe a two-hour pen down strike on Wednesday next week. Dawn
