During a speech in Quetta, the Chief Minister emphasized the importance of education for the province\u2019s future, highlighting ongoing efforts to ensure that no child is left behind.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe teachers will not be foreign. We are ready to recruit 10,000 local teachers on contract,\u201d he stated. The Chief Minister also promised reforms in the examination system, vowing to eradicate the culture of copying and cheating in schools..<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am very happy today that every child is now part of the school campaign,\u201d said Bugti. He stressed that while schools have been built across Balochistan, issues such as delayed recruitment, teacher absenteeism, and the high number of children involved in child labor remain significant challenges.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have built schools, but we have not made proper arrangements,\u201d Bugti acknowledged, urging critics to move beyond blame and work towards improving the situation. \u201cNow, instead of criticizing, we should move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Minister pointed out that child labor has kept many children out of the classroom and noted that while 400 schools have been reactivated, the real success lies in ensuring that all schools across the province are operational. He set an ambitious target for 90 percent of schools to be functional within the next two months, a directive given to the Secretary of Education.<\/p>\n<p>To address the shortage of teachers, Bugti announced the recruitment of 10,000 teachers on a contract basis, with a starting salary of 37,000 rupees. He emphasized that recruitment would be based on merit, with the highest-scoring candidates being selected. However, he made it clear that the government would not hire permanent teachers at this time, opting instead for contract-based positions.<\/p>\n<p>Bugti further called on NGOs and social organizations to focus their efforts on Balochistan, urging them to contribute to the province\u2019s education reforms. He expressed optimism that, with proper management and resources, Balochistan\u2019s schools will soon be fully operational, ensuring every child receives quality education.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will make cuts in our PSDPs (Public Sector Development Programs), but we will enable schools,\u201d he affirmed. \u201cGod willing, schools in Balochistan will open, and children will be in schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Minister\u2019s passionate appeal for the education sector underscores the government\u2019s renewed focus on tackling long-standing issues within the system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Syed Ali Shah: QUETTA:\u00a0Balochistan Chief Minister Sarfaraz Bugti has reiterated his government\u2019s commitment to improving the state of education in the province, with a strong focus on getting every child into school.
