Educational problems

Pakistan’s literacy rate is decreasing continuously as the schools have not kept up with the population explosion. A major proportion of this population resides in the rural areas of the country, where there is a lack of adequate educational facilities. Students have to travel to cities on a daily basis and those who cannot afford it give up on education altogether.

Another reason for growing illiteracy is the lack of awareness among the masses. People do not understand the importance of education in the world of 21st century. Child marriages are still a norm in our society, the idea of which sounds outdated in the advanced countries. We have to motivate people to send their children to schools.
