It would be good for both governments to sort out this issue
TURBAT: The teachers of Pak-Turk schools have been educating the students of our country for many years, but the recent announcement of marching orders for the teachers of Pak-Turk schools and their families by Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan to leave the country by November 20 brought a distressful moment for the students of Pak-Turk schools. The teachers, along with their families, were warned that if they do not leave the country by the set date, they will be arrested. Thousands of Pakistani students have been studying in Pak-Turk schools and will be disturbed if their teachers leave. Furthermore, children of the teachers and their families at Pak-Turk schools have conceded Pakistan as their own homeland, but now they are being forced to depart from their beloved country. It would be good for both governments to sort out this issue and save the future of thousands of students studying in Pak-Turk schools. They must find some way to keep the schools functional and the staff in Pakistan.
