Lahore, 8th April: The editors across Pakistan have written a letter to the Chairman Higher Education Commission demanding that the policy regarding the National Investigation Journal be revoked.
According to reports of Baaghi TV, the letter to the Chairman Higher Education Commission states that Higher Education Commission, formerly known as the University Grants Commission, was created in September 2002 under a new name, which aimed to promote higher education in Pakistan youth.
Highlighting the capabilities of the commission is to improve the quality of the research sector and renew the Pakistani universities in accordance with the international standards so that the teaching and research of the universities will help in building up of the younger generation of our nation.
The letter added that the Commission issued a policy decree for the magistrates on March 3, 2020, in which the National Investigation Journal has been banned from July 2020. Pursuing a commission on social sciences was a good step forward, giving young researchers from across the country a platform to explore their capabilities.

In a letter to the Higher Education Commission, the editors have stated that the HEC as a facilitator in the field of research and education was under the constitution of Pakistan and that no policy should be made that would affect Pakistan’s identity and nationality.
Pakistan’s national language should not be ignored at any cost. The Higher Education Commission has demanded that the newly introduced system be revoked immediately and that the decisions made at the meeting in February 2020 be put into practice.
The Higher Education Commission further demanded that all categories, including the Z, be maintained on the status of June 2018, and that the national system be exempted from the new system, by making any policy regarding national issues in HEC. The editors should be taken into confidence first.
