Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif on Sunday rejected the summary for extension in summer holidays, as educational institutions are scheduled to reopen across Punjab from today (Monday).
Parents and students expressed deep concern over the decision and said that the Punjab government should have extended the summer vacations. Lahore Education Executive District Officer (EDO) Pervez Akhtar said that the school education department recommended reopening schools on the scheduled date. He said that summer vacations were extended last year because of floods as the situation was not easy for students of South Punjab.
The EDO said that schools in Sindh also opened despite intense heat. Akhtar said that schools were required to complete 210 academic days during a year, which would only be possible through opening schools on the scheduled date. Students said that the monsoon season was in full swing and Eid was also coming but this was a “gift” of the Punjab government on the eve of Independence Day. Parents said that it would not be easy to prepare and pick and drop children during Ramadan.
They said that if the federal government could extend holidays then why not the Punjab government.

    • honourable mam arooj. its not a decent expression to say him(c.m) dumb. . . he is so active and concerned about the reformation of educational machanism at various fronts. . .so shud avoid our ever.ready relaxational appetites n try 2 b a worker national entity. .oda wise downfall n degeneration will b.cm a natural consequence.mind it

  1. worthy shabaz sharif sahab made a very reasonable decision.we must show some activity. .most of the govt teachers want 360 day offs with 5 days work. . . its a gud step to take couch potatoes outa their homes n to do sumthng

    • I think you are living in the world of fantasy. If he is doing so much for us; then where are the incentives. He has taken IT teachers from their original grades and give them lower pay scales. Deducted our basic right like computer allowance. On the other hand all the other ppl are getting allowances like teaching allowance, qualification allowance etc. Intel were preparing to give IT teacher's laptop which was also ceased by the GREAT Owl of 21st century. This is only my suffering. Other matters are also with me and alot more to come ……. so don't say about him as he is phantom of education.

    • Dear Wajhat,
      What are you doing .go suck the ………………………………………………

  2. CM Punjab take all Decisions against Federal GOVT or against PPP. Shahbaz shareef always all decisions and many funds take and done only for Lahore not for others district or poor peoples. it is a big fault in Nawaz shabaz party. In holy Ramzan, it is very difficult to arrange for all housewife to maintain their child and house working. The main cause that : 1) hot season
    2) rainy season
    3) many people, teachers and student also sitting ETKAAF in Masajid.
    4) All lawyers and Judges and Courts have holidays in august.
    5) After 15 Ramzan many people very buzzy to preparing & shopping for EID.
    So this is not a good decisions by CM Punjab Mr. Shahbaz Sharif.
    This is true that Nawaz & Shabaz party always against GOVT servants & poor people.
