I WOULD like to draw the attention of transport management of the University of Karachi towards the problems of students because of lack of transport from Gulshan-i-Maymar. Over 100 students come to study at the university from Gulshan-i-Maymar and its adjoining areas of Ahsanabad and Rainbow Apartments for morning classes.

Last year students submitted an application for transport, but nothing has been done so far. The authorities concerned should do the needful.

Hamza, i am too a student of university. Now a days, there is no concern about the problems of students, because management is just busy in filling their own belly. Sound and proper channel do not draw their attention, but the protest and the strikes can bring them to the problem. This is the scenario with all the government institutes.

Hamza, I am a student at KU as well, and I have the same problem. I live in Gulshan-e-Maymar and I have to change buses to get home. There is no use contacting and informing the authorities because apparently, it is not their responsibility. Maybe a if a lot of people go together it would yield some results. I'm from the Department of Political Science. Do contact me.
