Following the controversy, the university terminated the teacher who framed the contentious question. A letter from the Minister of Science and Technology reads, "The Hon’ble Federal Minister of Science and Technology has taken serious notice and shows his great concerns and grievance about the content of the quiz of English subject of Bachelors of Engineering of COMSATS University Islamabad (CUI). The quiz was conducted on the 4th/5th of December, 2022. The content of the quiz is highly objectionable and totally against the curriculum laws of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and caused unrest among the families of the students."

 


The Ministry had then directed the university to take strict action against the responsible quarters and conduct an inquiry into the highly objectionable contents. The university has informed the ministry that the Lecturer (visiting faculty) was terminated with effect from January 5, 2023, and was blacklisted from the university.

The netizens reacted sharply to the content and slammed the university for overlooking the question paper.
