College and school students Wednesday protested against Islamabad authorities’ failure to vacate nearly a dozen education institutions from police, Samaa reported.
On Friday, the Islamabad High Court (IHC) directed the Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) administration to get schools vacated from cops till September 23 and submit a report in this regard.
However, the Islamabad administration has failed to obey the orders.
According to Samaa correspondent, the police have ridiculed court orders by reoccupying five education institutions, a day after vacating the buildings. Eleven out of 19 schools and colleges are still occupied by police.
Thousands of police personnel have been called in Islamabad from Punjab and Kashmir to perform security duties in the federal capital where PTI and PAT protestors have been camping since August 14.
According to a document obtained by Samaa, the Islamabad administration has hoodwinked the court by claiming that all institutions have been vacated.
Today, students of the closed colleges gathered outside their institutions and staged a protest against the government move and chanted slogans against Islamabad authorities calling for early reopening of colleges.
“This closure is severely affecting our education. Government is responsible for this,” a female student spoke to Samaa correspondent in the protest.
