LAHORE, Pakistan: Students of various Private Educational Institutions continued their protest on Tuesday in various Cities of Punjab to press their demand for the physical exam; however as the situation turned violent, one student was killed in the unrest while seven reportedly sustained injuries.

Reportedly a student named Shah Jahan died when students’ protest resulted in violent clashes between the students and guards of a Private Educational Institution in Lahore.

   

Students of the University of Management & Technology (UMT), the University of Central Punjab (UCP), and the University of Lahore again held a strong protest outside the Premises of their respective Institutions in Lahore today.

The media reports said that students of the UCP were registering a peaceful protest today but in the meantime, the guards pelted stones and bottles on them, and also baton-charged them.

Subsequently, students reciprocated and stormed the building by breaking down the gates. They also set the University’s property on fire.

The police personnel also reached the protesting site; however, it added fuel to the unrest as they also dealt with the protesting students aggressively which further deteriorated the situation.
