Army chief calls for widening scope of madressah education
[DAWN] Army Chief Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa has called for widening the scope of education at madressahs (religious seminaries) to enable the students to play a more positive and productive role in society.Speaking at a seminar on ’Human resource development ‐ opportunities and challenges’ here on Thursday, he categorically stated that he was not against religious seminaries. The army chief said more religious seminaries were established in Balochistan  ...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it... compared to modern and quality schools for local students during the past four decades. "Only religious education is being imparted to the students at all these seminaries and thus the students are left behind in the race for development." Posted by: Fred 2017-12-08 |
