Education is one
of the basic factors which play a very vital role in the development of any
country. It also combats unemployment, confirms sound foundation of social equity,
awareness, tolerance, self-esteem and spread of political socialization and
cultural vitality. Like many other developing countries, the situation of
Pakistan’s education sector has not been very encouraging due to poverty,
unemployment, over-population and slow pace of economic development. Through 62
years and 23 policies and action plans, the available stats and figures on the
internet still show that the educational sector is waiting for an arrival of a savior.
Musharraf’s government invested heavily in the educational sector and that era
saw a visible positive educational change in the Pakistani society. Today, the
economic situation in Pakistan is under a lot of stress and education suffers
at the most in between all the hassle and chaos.
Recently, Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) Member National
Assembly Ahsan Iqbal said that Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif’s
scholarship program is the biggest educational initiative in the world. It is a
step taken to motivate the youth.
This is one such initiative that
was promoted on such a wider scale that it became so popular and Pakistan needs
many such youth based motivational programs and by the aforementioned
initiative taken by the rulers of Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) ,we, as the
Pakistani citizens are certainly capable of providing such initiatives. It is
high time that we as part of the Pakistani youth start taking such steps to
bring about a change and play our part towards the betterment of the nation in
the long term. And if we keep carving out such initiatives to educate our people
and implement them effectively then pinnacle of success and growth is HOW FAR
CAN WE GO.
It’s
a shout out to all the Pakistani’s that it is about time to bring the winds of
change so
WAKE UP!!!

Picture bohat ucchee hay. =')
ReplyDeleteThe thing is Shahbaz Sharif's Youth Initiative Scholarship is restricted to government institutions. If he stretches it out to every school. Every institution. That would have a bigger impact.
Also, the condition of small-scale schools throughout Punjab is deplorable. With the lack of furniture and the excess of animals inside the school (the schools have been transformed into stables for cows and horses), there's is barely any education for the lower classes.
Haan, Musharraf did truckloads for the education system in Pakistan. But it wasn't enough. We need a large chunk of our budget to go towards education. Otherwise, this country has little, if any, hope.
It's a brilliant piece, on the whole. I wish everyone woke up and responded to this wake up call!
Amazing way to highlight such an important issue.....
