KARACHI: The Karachi University Teachers’ Association on Tuesday announced a boycott of classes for two more days against the behaviour of secretary Universities and Boards Department, ARY News reported.
According to details, the Karachi University Teachers Society (KUTS) has announced a boycott of classes for two more days after Secretary Mureed Rahimo had postponed the session of the Selection Board without seeking prior permission.
Speaking at a press conference President of the Teachers’ Union Shah Ali Al-Qadr said that the teachers of Karachi University believe the secretary board attacked the university’s sovereignty by deliberately suspending the selection board that was to be convened on Monday.
