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.
