Development projects at three public universities in Sindh have been stalled for the past several years, even though the government has made much of the funds available, a report in this newspaper reveals. These institutions have completed a mere 25% of the uplift schemes. This bears testament to the neglect of the two significant sectors of health and education in the province and the country.
At the Sindh Medical University, Karachi the construction of a girls’ hostel and the expansion of an administrative block has been facing delays for the past six years. In 2015, the total cost of the scheme had been estimated at Rs791 million. This year, the government has released Rs30 million out of the Rs130 million set aside for the project but it is yet to get off the ground, showing that the authorities have failed to grasp the importance of hostel accommodation for female students. Red tape appears to be playingThis situation forces many to go to for
