THATTA, Dec 16: The district government has asked the provincial secretary for labour and manpower to help in making a computer laboratory operational which has been lying closed at the Technical Training Centre, Makli, for more than three years.

The EDO, community development, Iqbal Nafees Khan, suggested through a letter to the secretary that nine computers of the laboratory should be handed over to the community development or information technology departments.

The laboratory was provided nine computers by the National Training Bureau.

The bureau also supplied computers to the TTCs in all the districts of Sindh but reliable sources told this correspondent that except for Karachi and Hyderabad, nowhere a TTC was offering computer courses.
