Punjab Textbook Board has announced that it will no longer be providing free textbooks to 2.5 million students in the next academic year.
The decision was made due to the Punjab government’s failure to pay the board’s dues of Rs. 10 billion. It is a discouraging development that will have a major impact on the education of these children.
Every year, students in government schools in Punjab receive free books worth Rs. 3,000 per student. The initiative has been an essential support for families who cannot afford the educational expenses of their children.
The discontinuation of free books means that two and a half million children from government schools will suffer in the coming academic year, including their parents who are already grappling with the rising cost of living in the country.

But Govt of Pakistan can provide free Electricity, fuel, salary in laks to those who are incompetent, to The Employees of power sector, judges, govt employee, and the list goes on.
And when it comes to Betterment of Pakistanis who are actually running this country they will, govt of Pakistan will never to anything.
Here in Pakistan 14 cars go with prime minister.By selling these cars a lot of children can get free books.
This is extremely pathetic!
The influential people are not supposed to be worried about this
But only the lower class will be deeply affected by this!
Saddened!
