F.P. Report
PESHAWAR: Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Minister for Education, Muhammad Atif Khan has said that nations build by virtue of acquiring quality education instead of constructing multi-storied buildings and roads etc adding that the provincial government of PTI in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa also aimed at promoting education as its top most priority for which the budget allocation has been increased from 70 to 100 billion rupees. Similarly, 27 thousands teachers have been recruited on the basis of pure merit and boundary walls of 6500 schools were being built. These views he expressed while addressing the education convention held at Haripur on Thursday.

Previously the education was a source of mere employment and favouratism whereas the situation has been totally changed in the present set up. Thousands of teachers have been recruited on the basis of pure merit and no single teacher has been inducted like the previous practice of �Sifarish�. He said that recruiting teachers on the basis of �Sifarish� amounted to share injustice with the new generation besides violating the right of deserving candidates. He said that those who have committed injustices would have to face the consequences of their deeds in this world as well as in the hereafter.
