LANDI KOTAL : Students suffer due to shortage of staff



By Our Correspondent


LANDI KOTAL , Oct 1: Scores of students have been deprived of admissions in Bara-Khyber Agency’s only government technical institute due to shortage of staff and other related facilities, it is learnt.

Sources said that more than 200 students had applied for admissions during the current academic year, but only 50 were enrolled.

The principal said that he could not accommodate more students due to shortage of staff and lack of facilities.

A vocational training institute was established in Bara in 1979 that was later upgraded to a technical institute some four years ago. But no additional staff, rooms, laboratories or workshop halls were built for the purpose, he said.

Parents of students and local elders demanded an increase in seats and teaching staff.

The elders appealed to the director education Fata and political agent Khyber Agency to accommodate the students on self-finance basis to save them from losing an academic year.
