Abstract
The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic has had a substantial effect on different facets of human existence, with higher education in Pakistan being no exception. This study employs a qualitative research design, conducting 23 semi-structured interviews to explore the repercussions of the pandemic on students' learning. Thematic analysis of the qualitative data reveals that students faced challenges related to internet connectivity and technological resources during their learning experiences. The participants recommend the implementation of a practical online platform by the Ministry of Higher Education, emphasizing its necessity to be accessible and free even in areas with Limited internet connectivity. The study's findings offer valuable insights for leaders in higher education and educational administrators, guiding the evaluation and adoption of policies for emergency learning and teaching. Furthermore, lecturers can benefit from these findings to enhance their instructional strategies and design effective plans for teaching in challenging circumstances.
