Six Thousands Ghost schools Education is a Scary Prospect
Karachi:15 July: President Asif Ali Zardari may have made a generous donation of $10 million for a global initiative to educate all girls by the year 2015 – set up in the name of Malala Yousufzai – but his government has shamelessly failed to open more than 6,000 schools in his own home district.

These schools have neither been shut down by the Taliban nor bombed by suicide bombers. But they remain closed under the influence of lords ruling the peaceful land of the Sufi saints.

There are 6,721 such government schools in the 27 districts of Sindh. Of them 4,540 are non-operational and 2,181 are ghost schools, according to an official report obtained by The Express Tribune. The report, which has been prepared by the Sindh High Court, is based on inspections carried out by district and sessions judges across the province under the directives of the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
