The Sindh High Court (SHC) was informed on Wednesday by the additional secretary law and education that Sindh Muslim Government Science College had been demerged from Sindh Madressatul Islam University (SMIU).
The SHC bench headed by Justice Syed Hasan Rizvi was hearing the petition filed by Sarfaraz Khan and Shaikh Ziaulhuq who requested the court to restore SM Science College to its original position.
On Tuesday’s hearing, Additional Secretary Law and Education Syed Zakir Ali appeared before the court and informed it that the notification that merged SM Science College with SMIU had now been withdrawn. After the secretary’s report, the court disposed of the petition.
A notification issued by the Sindh government made SM College, a constituent part of the SMIU. After the merger the university was bound to convert the college into a model college which would function under the administrative control of SMIU, Karachi.
