The provincial assembly on Monday passed the Sindh Universities Amendment Bill 2025 despite opposition’s protest.
Minister for Parliamentary Affairs and Law, Ziaul Hassan Lanjar tabled the Sindh Universities Amendment Bill 2025 before the house.
The session saw uproar from opposition members, with MQM legislators chanting slogans against the bill.
Following the bill’s re-approval in the Sindh Assembly, the objections raised by the Governor of Sindh were rejected.
Sindh Governor Kamran Tessori had refused to grant his assent to the bill and returned it to the provincial assembly for reconsideration, raising objections to the new law that expanded the eligibility criteria to the serving bureaucrats for appointment as vice chancellor in public-sector universities.
