Student unions’ restoration: PM vows to make code of conduct

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan Sunday vowed to establish a comprehensive and enforceable code of conduct, learning from the best practices in leading world universities while restoring student unions.

In tweets, the prime minister said, “we will establish a comprehensive & enforceable code of conduct, learning from the best practices in internationally renowned universities, so that we can restore & enable student unions to play their part in positively grooming our youth as future leaders of the country.”

However, he regretted that in Pakistan, universities’ student unions became violent battlegrounds and completely destroyed the intellectual atmosphere on campuses. The prime minister tweeted, “universities groom future leaders of the country & student unions form an integral part of this grooming.

Unfortunately, in Pakistan universities' student unions became violent battlegrounds & completely destroyed the intellectual atmosphere on campuses.”
