KARACHI: The administration of Sindh University (SU) has reportedly included a question related to the Ahmadiyya community in the pre-entry test for admissions to M.Phil in 13 disciplines of Social and Natural Sciences Faculties.
Students were required to get 40 marks, out of 100 marks of a set of MCQs (multiple-choice questions) based on their respective field, to qualify for admissions. One of the MCQs was related to Ahmadiyya community’s book.
According to the test paper obtained by M.M News, the administration asked who wrote the Tafsirat-e-Ahmadiyya. The options include Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani, Ghulam Ahmad Pervez, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan and Mullah Jeewan.
