Mehnaz, another student termed the ban 'unlawful' and said that the Punjab government should reconsider its decision of imposing the ban. She also said that many parents have invested in their children's education, but due to the ban, there weren't enough teachers in the colleges.
Irfan, another student termed it "failure of the system of education in the country". He said that teachers were banned on political basis. "Politicians should worry about educating the youth instead of fulfilling their ulterior motives," he added.
"We cannot afford the fee of private colleges which is why we got into government colleges," said Imran. "But the non-availability of teachers in colleges and the sudden ban on CTIs has greatly affected education," he added. Students demanded that the ban on CTIs be removed, and all the teachers selected on the basis of interviews and credentials must be installed immediately.
