Bahria University’s Karachi campus was recently seen being bashed by social media due to their newly imposed ruling for the students. According to the administration of the university, male and female students are not allowed to stand and sit with each without keeping the distance of at least 6 inches.
A memorandum was released on the 17th May 2018 which ensured that the students must follow the dress code around the campus strictly. In addition to this, the notification mentioned the 6 inches distance between the students and also ordered how the opposite gender is “forbidden to touch each other”.
Here’s The Copy of the Notification Issued:
“All students are hereby directed to strictly abide by the dress code while in the university. Instructions have been issued for the disciplinary action against the violators as per the rules. Male and female students are to maintain a distance of at least 06 inches while sitting/standing together,”
And Here’s How Pakistanis Reacted to the Notification by Bahria University:
Bahria University issued a notification saying girls & boys if sitting together must maintain a distance(exactly 6 inches lol) and that is a laughing stock.
I need to know the reason behind the notification. Anybody from Bahria?

Student: "How does one be precise about 6 inches at Bahria University?"
Bahria University: "Use a ruler"
Student: "That's what passed the order in the first place"

Bahria University previously came under the fire of Pakistani social media by imposing a strict dress code for its students. With this newest notification, the university has received mixed, mostly negative remarks, for imposing unrealistic impositions on students yet again.
