Didar Nanjiani, one of the students from Thar, told reporters that he and his other fellows hail from remote areas of Sindh and Balochistan. They can’t afford a residence in a cosmopolitan like Karachi.

We pleaded the administration not to throw us out for we are poor students from villages, and have come to Karachi to live our dreams.

Expressing its helplessness, an official of the hostel administration said that the Sindh government wants to convert this building into Sindh Rehabilitation Center. He said that the Director Rehabilitation Center, Dr. Nabila Soomro, is a woman of political influence; hence, the administration is helpless before her.

The students should either protest or move to court against the government’s decision.
