The Punjab government has announced a policy to remove male professors and teachers from women’s universities across the province. This decision aims to create a safer educational environment for female students by addressing concerns related to harassment.
The policy will involve replacing male faculty members with qualified female educators in all women’s universities. The government believes this move will foster a more comfortable and secure atmosphere for students, encouraging greater academic participation and success.
While some support the initiative as a positive step towards women’s empowerment, others raise concerns about potential challenges in finding sufficient qualified female faculty to fill the positions. The government has yet to provide a detailed timeline for the implementation of this policy.
This decision reflects ongoing efforts to address gender-based issues within educational institutions in Punjab.
