Students at Panjshir University said that the building serving as the university’s dormitory has been changed to a Jihadi seminary recently, and they have been told to leave the building soon.
Around 300 students who are living in the dormitory said the decision will force them to give up university, saying they are not financially able to pay for private lodging.
The students urged officials to offer them an alternative building.
“The students face economic challenges, where should they go when they leave the dormitory? The students might leave the university,” said Shafiqullah, a student.
“The Jihadi seminary was inaugurated, then a letter was sent to evacuate the dormitory. There is no place for students to be transferred,” said Rokai, the representative of students in dormitory.
The acting minister of education on a visit to Panjshir inaugurated the Jihadi seminary.
Meanwhile, Mustafa Abusaeed, the chancellor of Panjshir University, said the Ministry of Higher Education will consider other places for students to live.
“The Ministry of Higher Education has taken responsibility to construct or to rent buildings for students. The destiny of the students will be clear soon, God willing,” said the chancellor.
Panjshir University is located in the Dashtak area of Rukha district.
