College students want science laboratory

ATTOCK: Students at the Attock Post Graduate College have expressed concerns over non-availability of laboratories for post-graduate physics and chemistry programmes which, they claimed, was putting their futures at stake.

This year is the first time the college had offered MSc programmes in Physics and Chemistry, students said, admitting that it was a positive step taken by the government.

However, they were worried that with exams only a month away, they did not have any facility for practical work.

In a meeting with College Principal Ghulam Mustafa Kayani and Federal Minister Sheikh Aftab Ahmad, the latter approved Rs2 million to build a lab. However, there has been no progress in this regard so far.
