Education problem in Chitral.
Respected Sir,
This is reference to the letter of Zia Ullah, President Students’
Parents Association, Chitral 26 Dec 2010. The birth of any child in
any family causes a great happiness among the people and every
parent’s has a desire to educate their child to compete with the
recent global and developed world. Chitral is a far flung area
which paralyzes the hard working people. The students have the
potential and capability to take education. Due to some situations
of financial as well as residential problems, they face a lot of
problems in getting education. They can’t bear the expenses of
residence in other big cities of Pakistan. The 60% of literacy can
be raised to 100% after building university campus in Chitral. More
than 70000 thousands are moving to the cities every year for higher
education.
Female education is very important in today’s
world to empower them. Females have played a vital role in the
development of every state. Due to lack of university in Chitral
most of the female students are not capable of moving towards
cities to get education because of residential and financial
problems. Most of the female students after doing graduation can’t
take education and start living at home where their potential and
capabilities are finished day by day.
If a simple university campus is opened in Chitral, will generate
huge amount revenue for Chitral resulting in high literacy rate.
Yours Truly,
Sajjad Ali Shah, Noor Alim,
Sanick, Garam Chashma.

3rd Death Anniversary of Benazir Bhutto Shaheed
People come and go, but there are few people who are remembered for
a long period of time due to their achievements. Benazir Bhutto
Shaheed is one of them. She appeared on the political horizon of
Pakistan politics like a shining star and in a short span of time
won the hearts of the people of Pakistan. She was the first women
prime minister of an Islamic country. Before her Razia Sultana,
daughter of Altamesh of Delhi Sultanate had achieved this privilege
in the 13th Century. Benazir Bhutto introduced new dynamics in the
politics of Pakistan. as well promoting her great father vision.
She was an icon of democracy and never compromised on principles.
God had gifted her great vision and insight recognized throughout
the world. She believed in constitunalism, democracy, transparency,
tolerance and social justice as envisaged by the founder of the
nation, Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto Shaheed. A
cruel dictator Ziaul Haq failed in his evil mission to remove her
from the politics of the country despite of his hectic efforts. She
organized the masses against the dictator and finally compelled him
to restore democratic system in Pakistan, at least in some form.Zia
never wanted to transfer power to the elected representatives of
the people, but ultimately he surrendered to Benazir Bhutto Shaheed.
This was a great gift which she gave to the people of Pakistan She
gave the women of Pakistan their due rights in politics and fought
for their rights. She firmly believed in democracy and democratic
values and her motto was that democracy is the best revenge. And it
is indicated by the fact that she forgave to her bitter adversaries
who wanted to wipe out her whole family. Her signing of the Charter
of Democracy along with Nawaz sharif is said to be the second
important document after the promulgation of the constitution of
1973.
The shaheed Banazir Bhutto was a symbol of
federation and worked hard for its consolidation, both in
government and opposition. She was a charismatic leader of all the
federating units of the country. Her early departure from the
politics of Pakistan has left a huge vacuum that can not be filled
in short period. Luckily some of her vision and policies have been
materialized by Mr.Asif Ali Zardari, the president of the Islamic
Republic of Pakistan. A liberal, progressive and democratic
Pakistan can only be achieved if we follow her footsteps with true
spirit. The need of the hour is to rally around the Pakistan
Peoples Party and its leader Mr.Asif Ali Zardari.
