THATTA, Jan 2: The Domicile Action Committee, Liaquat Medical University (LMU), Jamshoro, has taken exception to the issuance of nine domiciles it says are bogus.

The committee has threatened to launch a protest campaign against the Thatta administration if these “fake domiciles” were not cancelled in a week’s time.

The DAC, through a press release it issued here on Wednesday, signed by its president Azam Hussain Soomro and general secretary Jan Alam Shah, claimed that the Thatta, DCO office, by issuing nine fake domiciles, had attempted to deprive the local students of the opportunity to get admission in LMU. It listed the names of nine students it said were outsiders and in whose names fake domiciles had been issued.

All of these newly domiciled outsiders, the DAC claimed, had moved for admission to the Liaquat Medical University and succeeded in what they called “timely cheating the university administration.”

The DAC has thoroughly investigated and scanned the facts and has ample proof against those who have managed to secure fake domiciles “by greasing the palms of the authorities concerned,” it claimed.

Meanwhile, when this correspondent contacted the district administration, he was told that all the domiciles were being minutely scrutinized.
