Governor's
help for education
-letter
I
profoundly eulogize the positive gesture by Governor Owais Ahmad Ghani to waive
off tuition fees of Students belonging to Chitral studying in Peshawar
University and affiliated institutions by including them in the Malakand Relief
Package for students. It will have a positive impact on the parents of the
students in particular who can hardly afford the education expenses of their
sons and daughters due to severe financial constraints.
It merits a mention here that financial factor has remained a stumbling block in
the the way of acquisition of education for the Chitrali youth at the graduate
and post graduate level. It has also contributed to a mammoth drop out from
Schools in Chitral after matriculation. The Governor's gesture is a token for
the amelioration and promotion of education in Chitral and it will have a far
reaching impact in the arena of education in Chitral in the long run.Kudos to
the Governor!
