PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari condemns police brutality on teachers in Peshawar

 Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has said that police

brutality against teachers in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is highly condemnable. He said that on one hand KP government is cutting staff allowances and on the other, the government is claiming economic growth. 

Chairman Bilawal said that what a strange increase in the economic growth rate is this that the budget of higher education institutions in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is being cut. Khyber Pakhtunkhwa university professors have been protesting for five days and the government has not been able to at least listen to their problems. When there can be a Provincial Higher Education Commission in Sindh, why can’t there be one in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari asked. 
He said that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf federal government has given less of its budget to the universities of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari demanded that more than 15 teachers sustained injuries while protesting for their rights by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police and should be given free medical treatment. He asked where is the justice in handcuffing 22 teachers including grade 21 Ph. D professors.  

Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari demanded the immediate release of arrested staff of universities in the KP province. He said that on the one hand, the budget of KP universities has been reduced and on the other, students are being burdened by increasing university fees. He deplored the baton charge and tear gas shelling on respected teachers.
