Trust opens media front against SPLA

It is worth mentioning that Governor Dr Ishrat-ul-Ebad Khan has played vital role in forcing the education department to take back its decision of handing over the management of RLAK Govt College of Home Economics and Khatoon-e-Pakistan Girls College to Zindagi Trust and the Book Group.

“Shahzad Roy, chief of Zindagi Trust, is just an intermediate. On the other hand, the rulers intend to privatise all government colleges in the city on the pretext of shortage of funds while it has already privatised three colleges, namely St Joseph’s, St Patrick’s (morning and (evening). The government, in 2001, had planned to hand over 40 colleges to private sector. Such decision forced once again the teachers’ community to go against the government and hold massive protests,” Prof Ather said.
