PESHAWAR: Students of the NCS University on Tuesday protested against their university‘s administration for failing to arrange examinations for their next semester or providing them migration certificates so that they can continue studies at other educational institutions.

Around 30 students of the varsity, most of them girls and their parents gathered outside the Peshawar Press Club and chanted against the varsity’s administration.

They also help up banners inscribed with slogans in favour of their demands. Talking to The Express Tribune student Mumil Khan said that the NCS-university was affiliated with Khyber Medical University in Peshawar.

Noting that after her admission in August 2015 in the Health and Science department under a worker welfare fund scholarship, she said that the university had taken Rs3.5m from the worker welfare fund but it has not held an examination for them.

She threatened that unless the varsity provides them with migration certificates this week, they will stage a sit-in outside the K-P Assembly.
