BAHAWALPUR: The Punjab Higher Education Department (HED) has decided to fill the slot of the vice chancellor of the Government Sadiq College Women University, Bahawalpur.
The HED has invited applications from the candidates through an advertisement in the newspapers.
The women university has been without a VC since its inception in 2012 and it is being looked after by the VC of the Islamia University Bahawalpur (IUB).
The Government Sadiq Women Degree College, established during the era of the late Nawab of Bahawalpur, was upgraded to the level of the university. The locals had opposed merger of the college with the women university and had demanded the Punjab CM to establish a full-fledged women university with its separate campus. They persist with the stance that the identity of the historical women college should be restored and the women university should be established at a new campus.
