Students in the twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad are facing problems, as hundreds of educational institutions have no proper transport facilities. A large number of students come from the suburbs to their institutions in city areas. They have to face inconvenience in packed public transport vehicles besides maltreatment by drivers and conductors.
Several students shared their sufferings while travelling to their institutions with APP. “The school and college buses ply only on specific routes and I always use local transport to reach my college,” said Taseer Khan, a student. He said this is one of the major problems for all those who come from far-off areas.
Students complained that majority of the local transporters do not apply brakes when they see students waiting at the stops. Sanam Ali, a student, said due to financial problems, she couldn’t pay full fare of the van, while the transporters did not allow student concession. She said girl students particularly have to wait for a long time to find a seat due to which they often reach their college late. She demanded of the authorities concerned to arrange sufficient buses for colleges, especially women institutions.The news.
