The administration of the Women’s University went into frenzy when it was forced to collect hostel fees from the students.
The students took a stand on non-payment of hostel fees, saying that they have been studying online at home for the last two years during covid-19 and have not avail hostel from 2020 to 2021.
They questioned as why they should pay Rs120,000 in the head of hostel fees. The university administration is trying to charge a fee of Rs120,000 per student and is threatening to withhold students’ degrees if hostel fees are not paid.
Earlier, female students had also protested against hostel fees at Zakaria University on which the university administration had to waive hostel fees.
