A large number of students belonging to different study programmes and different batches at ISCS gathered outside the department and marched towards Institute of Communication Studies building.
Carrying placards and banners, the students raised their demands to reinstate recently dismissed teacher Ammar Ali Jan.
The students also chanted slogans against the administration for dismissing a foreign qualified teacher. They said that its their democratic right to protest any wrong doing of varsity as they wanted their teacher back in the classes once again. They also called the act of dismissing unethical by question how varsity could dismiss a teacher who was not only teaching them but also mentoring them.
The students were of the view that their teacher was supervising many thesis and research work of theirs and this act has left them in vacuum where no one is hearing them out. They added that this was the reason that people claimed that public sector varsities were lagging behind the private sector varsities because private varsities value their teachers and do not terminate them in such a manner, especially those teachers who are foreign qualified and prefer to teach back to the country, they added.
