The vice chairperson also spoke on the occasion.
At the end, the gold medals as well as certificates were distributed among those students who excelled in their studies.
An effective education system can lead Pakistan towards a path of stability and prosperity. Lack of education in Pakistan has given birth to extremist ideologies as a result terrorism and sectarian tensions are prevailing in the country. The government should introduce educational programs and trainings for both students and teachers so that we can improve our education system.
