School in Pishin

Published June 15, 2015

I BELONG to Pishin and am a fresh graduate of Government College University, Lahore, having major in Political Science. Our family donated a large piece of land to the labour department of Balochistan in 2004 for the construction of a school and a hospital .

We did this all because we knew the importance of education and, especially, since our area is in dire need of it.

The construction of the school and a hospital was completed in 2007, but they are still non-functional. I appeal to the authority concerned to pay heed to the issue. The whole locality of Pishin, especially Kalli Malak village, will be indebted to this act of kindness.
