I happened to visit a bookshop
along with my elder brother in order to buy course books for my nephew and
niece. When we entered the shop, there was a huge crowd waiting for their turn
to buy course books for their children as the season for new admissions or the
new sessions for 2012-13 have started in schools.
After a passage of time, our turn took place and we bought the required books but I was shocked to see the bill for the books which were expensive enough to confuse or worry a simple man and surely it is hard to bear academic expenses for middle class families these days.
A little book which only consists of 10 to 15 pages is more expensive that a person can’t believe. This is just because of bad governance and bad policies of the government of Pakistan People’s Party. The government has imposed taxes on paper owing to which the publishers publish books expensively and it feels that the government does not want to subsidize a common man in Pakistan.
The matter of concern is that the rulers or the leaders of Pakistan have never thought coming down to the level of the Pakistani nation and their own children are getting education abroad that’s why they are unaware of the basic issues of the nation. Would that our leaders faced the same issues which a common man faces, they would surely have known of the rates of pulse and flour!
I was disappointed to compare Punjab government with Sindh government after the situation and it can easily be gauged or judged through development projects and subsidy in education sector that the government of Punjab thinks of or takes care of its people and development of the province of Punjab whereas the ruling party PPP neither considers development projects nor subsidizes in education sector in Sindh.
The Punjab government provides free course books to the students learning in schools in Punjab whereas every female student is awarded a thousand rupee note as scholarship monthly and surely the education in Punjab is not only very cheap but also good in quality.
The PPP government in this regard should feel ashamed and learn something from Punjab government and avoid curses of common men who daily anathemise or damn the Sindh government. All taxes on paper must be removed and subsidy in education sector must be provided in order to improve over all condition of the country because education is a weapon that can change the fate of the country.
