Hooligans Disrupt Exams at Islamia College
Karachi : August 27: Hundreds of students taking their exams at the Islamia college were forced out of their classrooms into the streets on Monday.
During the paper for technical education, unidentified men entered the classrooms and tore away the answer sheets, shouting at the students to vacate the premises.As soon as the men entered, the invigilators ran away from the classrooms for their lives, students recalled. “The men were not armed,” said one eyewitness.
Hundreds of students were stranded on the street while the management negotiated with the hooligans.“We were asked to wait for fifteen to twenty minutes. Our teachers insisted they will tell us if the paper will be taken or not,” said a student requesting anonymity.

 

Apparently the negotiations failed because the entire college was vacated.About half an hour later, the police arrived. “They shot teargas shells at us. We could not see anything. With closed eyes we made it to a nearby mosque where we washed our eyes with water,” said another student.

 

Political clashes at the Islamia college and the Dawood College of Engineering and Technology located across the road are a frequent menace. The two colleges are under the influence of rival student activists.
The Islamia college is controlled by the rightwing Islami Jamiat Talaba (IJT). However, the student group denied the misdemeanour was carried out by its workers.“I heard about the incident but the men who tore the exam papers were not our workers,” asserted Sohaib Ahmed, the IJT information secretary.The news.
