Jamat-e-Islami Karachi chief Hafiz Naeem-ur-Rehman on Monday met with the students protesting against the recently conducted entry test under the Medical and Dental Colleges Admission Test Action Committee.
Talking to them at their sit-in protest in front of the Sindh Assembly building, he said parallel education systems existed in the country. âOne is for the lower and middle class and the other is for the upper strata.â
He said the entry tests under held under the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council were better and more result-oriented than the current Pakistan Medical Commission (PMC). âThe entry test held under the PMC was a sham and the JI will never allow the administration to deprive the students of their rights.â
