Well I have heard that a student of Bahria University Islamabad is going on a hunger strike for an INDEFINITE PERIOD beacuse he was rusticated on the grounds that he sent revolutionary poems of Faiz ahmed Faiz and Noon meem Shahid to his faculty member. And he wont call off the hunger strike until all his 14 demands are met and fulfilled.
1- Dignified restoration of Arsalan Bilal with apology from university’s management
2- Redress all grievances by reprimanding those responsible for committing atrocities on Bilal
3- Cessation of discrimination on basis of race, caste, creed, religion, affiliation, etc. on campus
4- All serving military officers in university be directed to return to purely military functions
5- All retired military officers in the university be gradually supplanted by qualified civilians
6- Post of Director Campus be occupied by a highly qualified academic
7- Purge the university of pseudo intellectuals
8- Constitute a special autonomous body of academics to ensure checks on faculty members
9- Tighten the plagiarism check policy on faculty members
10- Decision to retain faculty members should hinge on students’ feedback
11- Empower Students’ Affairs department for addressing apprehensions of students
12- Public proceedings of all cases before the discipline committee
13- Abolish dress code imposed in the university
14- Render more need-based scholarships by eliminating fee discounts for children of naval officers
P.S : Atleast someone is bold enough to take charge against the utter educational discrimination in our universities!!!!
