HYDERABAD, April 7: Some students of the MUET, Jamshoro, belonging to the ‘93 batch, continued their hunger strike outside the press club for the second consecutive day on Sunday in protest against the alleged anti-education policies of the university vice chancellor, Dr Abdur Rehman Memon.

They said that the future of 100 students of the 93 batch was at stake as they had been deprived of appearing in the supplementary examinations.

They appealed to the Sindh governor to remove the vice chancellor who was trying to seek another extension in his post although his contract was supposed to expire on April 20.

PML-Q: The local chapter of the Pakistan Muslim League-Q on Monday organised a free medical camp in Khursheed town to mark the Madar-i-Millat Year 2003.

Specialists from the Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences attended patients in different makeshift wards, including gynaecology, paediatrics, ENT, orthopaedic, eye and psychiatry.

PML-Q Senator Ms Tanveer Khalid inaugurated the camp after federal minister for railways Ghaus Bux Khan Mahar could not come to the city from Islamabad.

She was accompanied by senior vice president of the party’s Sindh chapter, Syed Shahabuddin Shah Hussaini and other leaders of the women’s wing of the Pakistan Muslim League-Q.
