ہنر نال جڑی تعلیم پاروں ہی پاکستان وچ جنرل ایجوکیشن مارکیٹ تے معاشرے لئی فیدے دے سکدی ہے اتے سکولاں وچ بچے جاون دی گنتری وی وادھو ہو سکدی جے۔

Since colonial times, our general education was based on learning writing skills only because colonial administration need claraks, know as Babu, for office work. Other than writing skills, all knowledge production was theoretical largely, it had no link with market as well as society. Till 1947, we had very less schools as well as students , majority of schools, colleges were in the Punjab only but even in the Punjab school were not in big number. After 1947 school ratio increased but after nationalization public education increased a lot. Post Zia period witnessed huge expansion in private education but it was without regulation. Today more than 50 million students are in schools, collages and universities but school education failed to delink it from colonial legacy. A matriculated student is of no use of market or the society. let us listen the discussion
