School bombed in Shabqadar
A private school was damaged when militants detonated explosives planted close to its boundary wall in the Shaeedabad area in Shabqadar on Wednesday.
“The boundary wall and a classroom of Doaba School System was partially damaged and the windowpanes were smashed due to the blast,” SHO Zaman, told The Express Tribune. “The anti-literacy militants had used a low intensity bomb that went off at night when the area was deserted,” he said.
Aftab Ahmad, owner of the school said that he was offering prayers in the mosque when he heard the blast and his neighbours told him that his school had been blown up. He registered an FIR against unidentified militants.

The real face of your so called "freedom fighters".
Police should shoot these criminals on sight. No hamdardi for these criminals.
@raaz Try to stay on topic. (and by the way, the road out of poverty is through the classroom. India gets that!)
Instead of describing these attackers as "anti-literacy", perhaps they should just call them illiterate since it is clear they can't be.
@raaz,
That's absolutely right. There are more poor people in India. So, bombing schools must indeed produce some benefits for Pakistan. How come I didn't think of that?
still India has more poor people than Pakistan.
India getting ready to send missions to Mars and Pakistanis bombing schools! Contrast for you !
