Student chanting ‘Go Nawaz Go’ during Ahsan Iqbal’s speech, expelled from university

The student who chanted “Go Nawaz Go” during Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal’s speech at Preston University, has reportedly been expelled.

According to a Roznama Express news report, the incident took place when Iqbal was speaking at the book launching ceremony for Dr Azizur Rehman Bughio’s new tome “The True Face of Islam” at Preston Unversity.

As the student started to chant anti-Nawaz slogans, the university’s registrar, Dr AW Baloch, stood on the stage and forced the protester out of the room.

The planning and development minister asked whether if this was the political education being imparted to students that they raise such slogans during a literary event.

“Is this what youngsters are learning from these sit-ins?”
Iqbal added that youth were the country’s valuable assets, and he had asked the university’s administration to explain to the student about improving his behaviour.

However, sources say the student has been expelled from the university for his sloganeering.
