ISLAMABAD: The government is trying to resolve the issues faced by university students in the country according to Federal Education Minister Shafqat Mehmood.
As most universities are now holding online classes, many university students don’t have proper internet facilities as most a lot of them belong to rural areas and since hostels have closed, they have gone back home.
Internet facilities are not up to the mark in rural areas and these students are having trouble attending these online classes and many even claim travelling long distances everyday for internet access to be able to sit in the online class.
