The administration has announced the indefinite closure of the University of Balochistan due to security concerns.
A notification issued by the university’s registrar on Tuesday directed all campuses, including the University of Balochistan, to shift their academic activities online.
The Directorate of Information Technology has been instructed to migrate all university data to digital platforms, while deans and directors are required to submit weekly performance reports to the registrar’s office.
However, university staff have been directed to continue reporting to their offices as usual.

The decision comes in the wake of a recent terrorist attack in Bolan, where militants from the banned Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) hijacked a passenger train.
The attack claimed the lives of at least 26 people, including security personnel, while several others remain hospitalized with injuries.
