The top management of the Quaid-i-Azam University (QAU) is likely to meet today (Friday) to decide about the resumption of academic activities on the campus.
The country's leading public sector university had announced the suspension of classes on the campus on December 27 for an indefinite period over terror threats.
However, members of the staff continued to be on duty to keep the admission process going uninterrupted.
Since the December 16 terror attack on a Peshawar school, which left 141 people, mostly children, dead, the countrywide educational institutions, including those of the federal capital, have been under the threat of being targeted by militants.
A member of the administration staff said the university’s top management, including vice chancellor, registrar as well as deans of departments, would meet today (Friday) to examine the overall security situation of the city, especially with regard to the university campus.
