Reopening of schools
Khairpur: DCO Mohammad Abbas Baloch has cast doubts on claims made by
education officers of the district about revival of non-functioning schools, and
said that the claims need to be properly verified.He was speaking at the
inauguration of an educational fair organised by an NGO at the Khazana ground
here on Sunday. Sindh Education Minister Pir Mazharul Haq, who attended
the ceremony, said that efforts would be made to improve the standard of
education in the province because the system had been a victim of political
interference. He said that dictatorial regimes indulged in political
interference, but the PPP had closed that chapter. He said that it was a
matter of concern that a grade-20 officer in the education department could not
speak English. He condemned killing of women and girls in the name of
honour and said that while many people did not send their daughters to school,
they felt proud in killing them by terming them 'Kari', he said. The
minister said he had visited a girls' college in Hyderabad which had 12
lecturers of zoology "Who is going to teach this subject in other colleges which
do not have zoology teachers?" During a visit to a girls' school in
Thatta, he said, he had found that only 11 of the 93 enrolled students were
present. And when he asked them about their teachers, the girls said that they
were on leave to attend a wedding. He said many government schools were
being used by waderas as guest-houses and storehouses. Efforts were being made
to get such schools opened. Later, the education minister visited stalls
of various schools at the fair and appreciated the work done by children.
Schools in Khairpur, Rohri, Dadu and Sukkur participated in the fair.
Students of various schools presented tableau, folk songs and dance. Dawn
