Par conséquent, le retour de la paix dans le pays a permis au gouvernement de mettre l’accent sur l’éducation, qui joue un rôle essentiel dans le développement de la société, a ajouté le Ministre.
Le Ministre a déclaré que le Pakistan a doublé l’allocation budgétaire consacrée à l’éducation, qui a également augmenté en pourcentage du PIB.
