After a fight at Quaid-i-Azam University, 25 students were admitted to the hospital.
A fight between two student groups at Quaid-i-Azam University (QAU) on Saturday night resulted in up to 25 injuries.
Twenty of the injured pupils were admitted to the Polyclinic and five to the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims).
Lt Col Nadeem Abbas, the campus manager, filed a First Information Report (FIR) with the Secretariat police.
The application states that at 10 p.m. on Saturday, a hostel No. 5 guard notified Mr. Abbas that Muzamil Marwat had been physically assaulted by some students near Karachi Huts, resulting in head injuries.
Then, 70–80 individuals, led by Punjab Council Chairman Rana Hasan, began congregating at Hotel No. 7. Around 300 students from the Pakthtun community, led by Asad Turi, also congregated there at the same moment, according to the FIR.
Police begin an investigation, but thus yet no arrests have been made.
After Asad Turi spoke to the students, the latter attacked Hostel No. 7 with iron rods and batons. About 25 students were hurt during the roughly 40-minute-long altercation between the two groups.
Despite the police starting an investigation, no one was taken into custody until this story was filed.
At the QAU, disputes between student organisations are now commonplace. The problem has not been resolved by the university administration.
A religious organisation voiced its displeasure over the three-day Abdus Salam Festival, which was set to begin on May 27th, but the QAU administration decided to postpone it.
In 1979, Dr. Abdul Salam, a theoretical physicist, became the first Pakistani recipient of the Nobel Prize.
In partnership with the Pakistan Academy of Sciences and the National Centre for Physics, the Quaid-i-Azam University Science Society organised the event to recognise his contributions to science.
Under an Act of the National Assembly, Quaid-i-Azam University (formerly known as Islamabad University) was founded in July 1967 and began offering PhD and MPhil degree programs in teaching and research. Subsequently, master’s, graduate, and undergraduate programs were added.
