What a rubbish news . Internship is not a hiring. It already happening since 2008 and their contract expires after few months. Government doesn’t recruitment Lecturers BS 17 according to proper needs since Pakistan came to existence and this deficiency always remains. Since 2008 internship policy was introduced and when internies salary reached above 30,000 your bogus journalism noticed this cheap stunt as something new👅
What would happen after eight months? Stop playing and joking. Merit? Jo khud merit py medical college me na Gia ho wo merit ki bar karega?
The contract is for six months, not eight, and it will end on 30 April, not 30 March.
