Education sector
Dear Editor,
It’s an outcome of our past actions when the country expanded quantitatively rather than qualitatively. Parties in power tried to gain political mileage with the opening of a large number of educational institutions but failed to swim against the tides to improve the quality.
The government should bring reforms in the sector. The use of technology should be encouraged. However, the teacher-taught relationship should not be undermined. Students get knowledge and ethical values from their teachers and parents. Strong measures should be taken in the selection of a teacher as he affects the lives of a new generation.
