Kabul: The Taliban government of Afghanistan has separated weekdays of male and female students of Kabul University and Kabul Polytechnic University in a bid to further end co-education in the country, media reports said on Monday.
Based on the new timetable for the universities, three days of the week are allocated for all-female students during which no boy will be attending classes while the remaining three days will be given to boys with no girl presence, reports Khaama Press.
Spokesperson of the ministry Ahmad Taqi in a video clip was quoted as saying by Khaama Press that the decision was made after the academic council of the University of Kabul suggested to so that the students have enough time for practical activities and scientific research.
The timetable will only be implemented at the University of Kabul and Kabul Polytechnic University at the moment and will be in effect in May, the news agency reported.
