Education crisis in Balochistan
Balochistan, the well-to-do Province of Pakistan, is facing plenty of loathsome Problems and the people are deprived of basic life needs and rights as citizens of a country. If we talk about the education system of Balochistan then we will be astonished and very disappointed. Balochistan despite being the richest Province of Pakistan is facing education Problems ominously. The literacy rate of the province is 39 percent.
Mostly, the People of rural areas are suffering from a fatal disease of absenteeism of teachers even though some villages in Balochistan are deprived of ground laying opportunities. As they lack infrastructure and buildings for their so-called registered educational institutions. The education system of Balochistan has been destroyed because the government and the citizens are not willing to bring changes to the system. It is really painful to mention that in Balochistan more than 2.3 million children including boys and girls are out of school, whereas only 1.1 million children received Primary school although half of the school children refrain from the study after matriculation because of poverty and other education obstacles. There are more than 12,500 Primary schools in Balochistan among them more than 7000 schools are without classrooms and teachers but no fetching actions are being taken by the government and the citizens make us upset.
The world calls the era of development and technology but we are still stuck with the problems that the world had solved a century ago. Recently it is estimated that in Balochistan there are more than 5000 ghost teachers. They are out of school and getting their wages, no one is ready to talk with these ghost teachers who are destroying the brilliant Futures of our children. It is the right time for the citizens of Balochistan to use their voices against this burning issue and do something good to eradicate this gross Problem in Balochistan.
Balochistan needs to bring improvement in its education sector. Though Politicians always utter that they would bring improvement in the education sector, these chirpy words of the leaders make the students and citizens disappointed because they only talk and do not take any action.so I request them to work on their words and the citizens should wake up for the sake of saving their generations.
