TIMERGARA: The Mutahida Talba Mahaz, a joint students’ organization on Tuesday took out protest processions at Samar Bagh and Gulabad against the government failure to provide transport and other facilities to college students. The students of government degree college Samar Bagh observed class boycott and took out a procession from the college. The protesting students gathered on the road at Sadbar Kaly. Speaking on the occasion Asfandiyar Khan of the ISF, Muhibullah of the IJT and others alleged that the college had been functional for the last 12 years but the students had not been provided with any transportation facility. They said students of the college travelled miles of distance daily that also wasted their precious time. The students said that the college had been named as government Ghazi Imran Khan College but students’ documents lacked this name. They complained that several posts of lecturers were lying vacant but the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government had failed to fill the vacancies. The students demanded of the provincial minister for higher education Mushtaq Ahmad Ghani to take notice of the matter and take practical steps to satisfy the students of Samar Bagh college.
