State of educational institutions

We are accountable for not educating our children

TURBAT: It is a prominent issue that government schools are not getting the necessary facilities they need. The schools, especially the primary schools which need the basic facilities the most, are facing multiple challenges such as scarcity of teachers, classes, bathrooms, clean water, etc.

In the province of Balochistan, few schools are provided these facilities. If a student does not have water to drink in a school, how can they carry on their education properly! If the government is not much concerned about our educational system, it becomes our responsibility to be united and manage our schools. The government does not do anything and we are just waiting for the government to take the first step. We are destroying the future of our nation. We are accountable for not educating our children. We can easily provide the basic facilities in schools if we wish to. We just need to be dedicated and motivated.
