KARACHI: Teaching at Karachi University is set to resume on Wednesday (today)
although teachers will continue their protest till the arrest of the culprits
involved in the killing of Prof Shakeel Auj.
This was decided in a well-attended general body meeting of the Karachi
University Teachers Society (Kuts) held in the Arts Auditorium on Tuesday.
“The teachers were unanimous that the governor must ensure that the promises
made by him in a recent meeting with teachers’ representatives are met in letter
and spirit,” said Kuts secretary Moiz Khan.
Teachers across the city would hold a grand demonstration on Oct 1, the venue
of which would be decided after consultation, he added.
The Sindh governor had met a KU teachers’ delegation a day earlier and
assured it that the government would arrest Prof Auj’s killers as soon as
possible and would give reasonable compensation and a residential plot to the
victim’s family.
