FAISALABAD: Kashan Gilani, a student of the University of Agriculture Faisalabad who was rusticated from the varsity for defaming the varsity, has appealed to Vice-Chancellor Prof Dr Iqrar Ahmad Khan to review the decision.
Talking to newsmen on Wednesday, UAF spokesman Prof Dr Jalal Arif said the VC had constituted a committee to review the matter and sought a report within 24 hours. Following the VC’s directions, the committee called the student and his parents on Wednesday afternoon and the student tendered an unconditional apology, he added.
