Students
and teachers of the Bolan University of Medical and Health Sciences in Quetta ended
their 37-day protest against the varsity on Friday.
They had been protesting outside the
university campus with placards in their hands. The students also chanted
slogans against the varsity’s administration.
The teachers demanded that the varsity’s college be reopened. They also wanted their GPD funds to be released (a programme that provides transitional housing and supportive services to homeless veterans) and a decrease in house requisition.
The students, on the other hand, wanted
a reduction in their fees, provision of mess allowances and restoration of
district quota system. They also demanded the varsity release their exam
schedules on time.
When the protests gained momentum on
Friday (February 7), MNA Agha Hassan Baloch assured the protesters that their
demands will be fulfilled after which they ended.
