Additional Director Teachers’ Training Institute Sindh (TTIS) Ghulam Asghar Memon addressing at cheque distribution ceremony of Rs20,000 scholarship for each of the 19 girl students of the GECW Khairpur, said the SALU had refused to give affiliation to the college as the college did not own a building.
Ghulam Asghar Memon said that the college had a good building, but the authorities at Khairpur forcibly got it vacated and established the Khairpur Medical College (KMC), which is an injustice with the girl students of the GECW, putting the future of the girls at stake. Now the authorities were trying to get the hostel of the college vacated as well. He said the civil society of Khairpur was unmoved over the issue.

He said the TTI was focusing upon accreditation of the teachers and standard of education.Ghulam Asghar Memon said the trained students having degree of Associate in Education (ADE) will be the best teachers.
