QUETTA, June 18: Balochistan University Vice-Chancellor Ghulam Mohammed Taj has said that sub-campuses will be set up in Gwadar and Qila Saifullah to provide higher education facilities to students of remote areas. Speaking at the oath-taking ceremony of office-bearers of the Academic Staff Association of the varsity at the law college hall on Friday, he said that new subjects would be introduced.

The vice-chancellor said the university administration was bound to implement the orders of the Supreme Court debarring students from taking part in political activities on the varsity’s premises and would take action against violators.

He said that 50 acres of land have been allotted for the sub-campus in Gwadar and hoped that classes would begin by June 2006.

He told the ASA body that the administration would resolve the problems of the teachers and employees.

ASA president Dr Imdad Hussain also spoke on the occasion.
