IMPORTANCE OF FEMALE EDUCATION

Female education is the need of the hour. Without educating the women of
the country we can’t hope for a developed nation. Women play a vital role in
the all round progress of a country. If we want to make democracy
successful, women must be educated. They are the real builders of happy
homes.

It is said that if we educate a man, we educate a man only, but if we educate a

woman, we educate the whole family. This highlights the importance of
female education. It is a fact that women are the first teachers of their
children. It is in their lap that the children receive the very first lessons.
Hence, if mothers are well-educated, they can play an important role in
shaping and moulding of their sons and daughters. Napoleon was once asked,
what the great need of France was. He simply answers, “Nation’s progress is
impossible without trained and educated mothers. If the women of my
country are not educated, about half of the people will be ignorant.” Such was
the opinion of Napoleon about educating the women-folk. Our opinion too
must not differ from Napoleon. We must give up our conservative outlook
and create an atmosphere in which not a single woman remains uneducated.

Women have three major roles to perform in the course of their life. They
have to discharge their duties as good danghters, good wives and good
mothers. Apart from these important duties, they have to prove themselves as
good citizens of a free democracy. Hence, it is necessary to give women a
different kind of education from the one given to boys. Their education
should be such as may enable them to discharge their duties in a proper way.
From education they become fully matured in all the fields of life. Educated
women are well aware of their duties and rights. They can contribute m the
development of the country in the same way as men do.

Society runs on two wheels, both the wheels must be equally strong to run
smoothly. It is a good sign that today’s women are not considered a weaker
sex. They are being taught properly right from their childhood. As a result we
see women working in almost every field. They work even in police and
tence departments. Our constitution grants them equal rights n°t more rights as
compared to men.
Although legally and theoretically women are now considered as equal to
men yet there are people who refuse to give them their due. They think that
the women are inferior to men and ill treat them and misbehave with them.
All right thinking people should protest against it. They should try to broaden
the outlook of those who have conservative feelings for women. Female
education is important and all the impediments must be removed from the
way of their education. Let’s take a view to extend a cooperative attitude in
imparting education to the women folk.

BRT IN PESHAWAR
PESHAWAR:The Peshawar Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project was announced
with the intention to relieve residents from many of their day-to-day traffic
woes. But as work continues, some have begun to wonder whether the
scheme is causing more problems than solutions and if in the end it would
be worth it all.
Minister for Local Government Shahram Khan Tarakai told  The Express
Tribune that the Peshawar BRT is a gift for the city and the province, which is
why it was inaugurated on Pakistan Day.
The minister noted that the project was started by the last Pakistan
Tehreek-e-Insaf provincial government, which was led by then-chief minister
Pervez Khattak, who is now the defence minister.
He further said that after taking charge as the local government minister, he
has been monitoring BRT-related work and is quite satisfied with it.
When asked about the extensive delays in the BRT’s opening, he said that
although the project was delayed for more than two years, while admitting
that Khattak had said it would be completed in six months, he explained that
changes in the design, a court stay order, and some NAB cases had an effect
on the project.
He added that the sewerage system has been completely changed in the
city, while gas pipelines and electricity pylons and lines were also replaced,
which took additional time.
Tarakai said that drivers for the BRT had already been trained and that 20
buses will be on the root of BRT on 23rd March, adding that modern system
including cameras and other modern gadgets will be installed in all station of
BRT to provide more facilities to the passengers travel in BRT.
He also claimed that the related link road widening project will also be
completed by June.
He added that because of heavy traffic caused by the rapidly growing
population of Peshawar, the government is also working to develop Ring
Road and Northern Bypass Road at an estimated cost of over Rs10 billion,
for which donor agencies will be approached soon.
He said that some political parties highlight problems in the BRT project, but
in the near future, it will benefit everyone, including those who are currently
opposing it.
Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa President
Ameer Muqam said that the BRT project was started by the PTI government
from a stated cost of Rs30 billion, which has now ballooned to Rs80 billion.
“What was the sin of the poor people of Peshawar? Every day, people in
Peshawar are getting stuck on roads for more than four hours stuck while
the sick and elderly are also facing problems because of the BRT,” Muqam
added.
He added that the NAB report on BRT and the decision of the Peshawar High
Court are already on record and claimed that former chief justice of Pakistan
Saqib Nisar stopped the inquiry to favour PTI chairman Imran Khan .He
added that an independent inquiry should be conducted into BRT, claiming
that the PTI government just started it “to collect their personal
commissions”..
He said that as a member of the provincial assembly, he always raised his
voice against the BRT project, but he could do nothing because the PTI
government had initiated it only to collect commissions.

Babak said that 60-foot roads were now just 12-feet wide, giving the
example of Khyber Road, which is used by more than 70,000 vehicles every
day, and added that the roadwork has also affected the Pak-Afghan trade
route.
Jamaat-e-Islami Member Provincial Assembly and former local government
minister Inayatullah Khan said that the project was first discussed when he
was still a minister and that he raised questions during the cabinet meeting
before protesting against it.

“The questions I raised from [then-CM] Pervez Khattak are now proven. The
project is still incomplete and has only increased the miseries of the
people,” he said.

He added soon they will soon move a motion in the provincial assembly
against the BRT, adding that all political parties were on the same page as
common citizens who were affected by the project.
Pakistan People’s Party Information Secretary Senator Robina Khalid said
that the ill-planned BRT project not only affected people’s daily lives but also
their businesses, as many people in Peshawar their business were badly
affected.
“Even Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan opposed BRT project’s
everywhere else and always said that they were white elephants,” Khalid
added.
She further said that the main problem of Peshawar was the sewerage
system, but nothing has been done to improve it, and the recent rains show
that the situation has gotten even worse.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader Arbab Khizar Hayat said that because
of the BRT, most people on University Road were badly affected, adding that
when the project started, the number of dengue cases increased
significantly in areas near the BRT and where dumping was taking place.
