MANSEHRA: Students of Bachelor of Law (LLB) have complained that the question paper of Pakistan Penal Code (PPC) subject was out of the coursebook and the majority of them couldn’t attempt it accordingly.
“University of Peshawar has included questions about the British and American constitutions in the paper, which were not part of our curriculum book of PPC,” Shahzad Abbasi, a candidate told reporters after appearing in the paper here on Monday.
Led by Abbasi, the candidates said that they would come onto streets to protest against the out-of-the-course paper if Peshawar University didn’t cancel the PPC paper and announced the the fresh date for the same.

Education diplomacy
July 4, 2021
Foreign troops are pulling out of Afghanistan, putting the country back in the headlines. On Pakistani mainstream media a category of ‘defence analysts’, who had been hiding under rocks for the last decade, are back on air and going so far as to describe the Taliban as ‘more statesmen like than before’ while simultaneously predicting another long civil war.
These developments gave me an opportunity to reflect on some of my experiences of engaging with the education development sector in Afghanistan between 2014 and 2015, over the course of five trips of a few weeks each. This was around the time when Abdullah Abdullah and Ashraf Ghani had signed a unity government deal. It made me think, in light of the history of Afghanistan of the last few decades, what I would like to see happen (differently this time) that could support a more peaceful Afghanistan, one not spelling danger for our country too.
