LAHORE: The Punjab Higher Education Commission (HEC) came under criticism in the Punjab Assembly on Wednesday for what the lawmakers said not giving space to administrators of various universities to function.
“The PML-N government unnecessarily established the HEC, which kept the [administrative] systems of universities paralysed in the last 10 years,” Speaker Chaudhry Parvez Elahi said during the Question Hour pertaining to the Higher Education Department.
“We’re now mourning the unnecessary tasks undertaken by the PML-N government. There’s a need to change the whole higher education system in the province,” said the speaker in an unusual grilling of the former ruling party.
