Education Boards in Sindh are Going Bankrupt

The government of Sindh has failed to provide a grant of Rs. 3 billion to the provincial boards of education, which may result in their bankruptcy.

The provincial government is indebted to six boards. The withheld grant has been allocated for the boards in the budget as compensation by the government in lieu of the enrollment and examination fees of Matric and Intermediate level students at government educational institutions.
