Quetta: IT UNIVERSITY DISCRIMINATING BALOCH, PAKHTUN STUDENTS

When the IT University was established in Quetta, it was deliberately handed over to the Mafia with a specific task to discriminate the Baloch and Pakhtun students from remote areas of Balochistan. They were denied admission on the pretext of merit of the mega cities which is a fraud in Balochistan. Balochistan had its own system of representative merit working successfully for the past six decades in which top and brilliant students from all the districts of Balochistan are given chance of admission, right of higher education keeping in view the backwardness of the area where the Government had failed to provide facilities at par with Quetta. Since aliens and their agents control the University from day one, they were implementing the task to keep poor and bright students from remote regions away from the IT University and the students from Quetta alone should monopolize admission or chance to get IT education and others are barred from it. It is surprising that the Government of Balochistan took no action against the University and allowed the University administration, mainly the biased Vice-Chancellors, to discriminate the Baloch and Pakhtun students from Marri, Bugti tribal territories, Zhob, Barkhan, Sherani, Kech, Awaran, Naushki, Chagai, Kharan, Bolan, Sibi, Kalat, Khuzdar, Lasbela and some other remote parts. All these districts have representative students, all bright and position holders, in the Medical Colleges, Engineering Universities of Pakistan and other professional colleges on the basis of district merits which the IT University is denying the same right. Secondly, there is zero representation of Baloch students, teachers and members of the administrative staff because of the discrimination and the official policy to keep Baloch away from the IT University. The Government of Balochistan should take notice and reverse all the discriminatory laws, regulations and policies against the Baloch students on their own homeland. The first step should be that the biased Vice-Chancellor is removed immediately and a highly professional and IT expert should replace it for efficient working of the University. The money, resources and land is of the Baloch people and they are discriminating the Baloch students denying them admission in rightful number. There is no need of any University or institution on the Baloch mainland in which Balochs are discriminated. The silence and inaction on the part of the Provincial Government is surprising. The Government had failed to protect the Baloch rights, Baloch interests and Baloch institutions and still claims that it is representing the Baloch majority as their representative. The Government should perform in areas where the majority population is discriminated by vested interests at the behest of the aliens and their agents. They should not be given a free hand and the Government should check the anti-people activities of vested interests that manipulated the things and occupied important positions in the IT University which they don’t deserve at all.
