HYDERABAD, April 8: The Sindh Professors and Lecturers Association has expressed concern over the occupation of six acres of land belonging to the Government Ustad Bukhari College, Dadu.

An urgent meeting of the association, held here on Monday, condemned the forcible land occupation by a land grabber, Tufail Arain, with the support of area EDO Qamar Farooqi and his clerk Barkat Janwari.

It pointed out that the college administration had the relevant record of the land.

The SPLA appealed to Sindh chief secretary K.B. Rind and education secretary Ghulam Ali Pasha to immediately suspend the EDO and the clerk for supporting the land grabber.

The meeting, which was presided over by Professor Liaquat Aziz, demanded that the land grabber should be arrested.

It warned that if the demands were not accepted and the land grabber was not evicted from the land, the SPLA would launch a protest movement.
