Pakistan is economically a strong country but its residents
are economically weak. They go for each possible way by which they can earn
something for themselves or their family. And that’s why when a couple have a
new baby in their life they start dreaming of giving him every possible
education that could make him economically strong and by which he could make
his own identity in society. They start dreaming of making him doctor, engineer
officer or any kind of reputed professional. For this purpose they take three
important steps in his life. They start from his schooling; they go over each
possible option; both private and governmental schools; where they came to know
that private institutions ask for fee’s that are even more than their earning
so they go for governmental institutions. And when it comes to “Pakistani’s
governmental educational institutions” then it’s famous for its lethargy.
Most
of government school’s teacher attends schools just for paper work they have no
concern with the educational future of a student. The next step parents takes
towards making their child’s life is to get him admitted in any good college;
where he could study to get good grades to appear in entry test for medical and
engineering line, but here once again they have to choose between a private or
governmental institution. Some take risk by admitting their child in private
institution by giving more than half of their savings while some once again
chose governmental institution for their child as they have not enough
resources to take risk. Now here the race begins between a governmental and
private institution. Private institution do their best to make their students
able to appear in top ten students in Board examination so that next year they
could get more costumer or profits in the name of student while government
institution put their efforts in “Booti” system, bribe, or backhanding. And
when intermediate’s student’s results are announced; then most of the positions
in top ten are obtained by those governmental institution’s students. But the
reality of their grades are revealed when they appears in entry tests held for
medical and engineering fields; here most of the students that fails to make it
through the test are those who obtained very good grades.
Now here question
comes if the student was so good or studious to take marks in intermediate then
why he didn’t made it through the test? It’s just because the governmental and
private institution focuses on making marks but not to make him understand what
he actually is studying about; in other words “Ratta” system is followed. After
this the last step is taken for making a student “Bara aadmi” (big man) and
that is if he clears the test he gets admission in medical university,
engineering university or if not then any other university in any other field,
in either way now they have to face university forces. In most of the
universities female students are harassed by lecturers and professors; while
with male students the language used by some lecturers is unethical. There are
also some need based scholarship announced by government for students but the
authorities’ behaviors are so much insulting; that those students tries to
avoid applying for it who need it, while they who apply are not needy one but
they apply just for fun or greediness.
There are also some kinds of students
who don’t bother to respect even those professors who are loyal with their
field or them; and that’s the reason what makes a lecturers or professors behavior
harsh towards his student. Somehow by hook or by crook at last a student gets
his master’s degree; now once again his struggles starts to get a job that is
economically best for him; some gets their jobs again by backhanding while
those who fails to get a good job tries small level jobs and some out of
frustration of being jobless; finds Suicide as an escape from all the worries
and problems they are facing. A dream that parents dream for their child ends
on either in the form of a person having his job and established life or in the
form of suicidal death of their child but in this over all cycle the question
arises what the Educational systems or institutions of Pakistan is contributing
towards development of the society.
