Pakistan’s universities playing with student’s future during corona virus lock-down. ~ Affairs Outline

shut every thing its a lock down and stay at home

Due to Corona Virus epidemic, in Pakistan first Sindh provincial government and then federal and all other provincial governments decide to shut all educational institutes including government/ private schools, colleges and universities even madrasas. And later on Sindh government put a complete lock-down in province and seal all its borders with other provinces and following this all other province also but lock-down and stop all commercial, religious and public activities.

In this situation universities start online classes for undergraduate and post graduate students to not affecting their semester schedule. But as this thing begin students from all institutes demand semester break as this thing not working due to slow internet and unprofessional staff but universities keep ordering their professors to conduct online classes to cover semester syllabus.

Due to lock-down all business are shutdown but private and government education department are still making money by doing nothing.

One of the student from top ranking and highly fee charging university tell us there teacher send them slides of topic on Whats-app group and then send voice note explaining them. And no one allow asking any question.

Many time Skype and zoom app which are used in Pakistan for online classes not working on every student station because many of students are belongs to remote area where internet facilities are not available.

Government also orders all educational institutes to charge only 80% fees and relief 20% to parents but all institutes deny that government order.

Students are in total lose in that epidemic and institute are still making money. Student demands from PM Imran khan to take notice of that issue and order semester break and also compensate parents on semester fees as many of universities charge huge amount under different heads like library fee, sports fee, entertainment fee, laboratory fee etc..
So now in these days none of that facility will be available so government should order institute to charge only tuition fee. And relief parents inn that epidemic.
