He said without strengthening health services and administrative efficiency, efforts to combat militancy cannot succeed.
The initiative reflects the provincial government’s focus on expanding healthcare access while supporting broader security and governance goals.
Earlier in October, the Balochistan government has successfully reactivated 3,144 schools that were previously closed, marking a historic achievement for the province.
The initiative, led by Chief Minister Mir Sarfaraz Bugti and spearheaded by Provincial Education Minister Raheela Hamid Khan Durrani, has brought functional education back to more than 81,000 children. This effort has revived 81% of the 3,862 schools that were once non-functional.
“The future of our province is linked with education, and we are ensuring that no child is left behind,” stated Minister Durrani, highlighting the government’s commitment.
The success was driven by a large-scale recruitment and redistribution campaign. The government appointed 2,789 new teachers in three phases and reactivated an additional 290 schools by strategically reallocating existing staff. The initiative received crucial support from organizations like the National Commission for Human Development (NCHD) and the Balochistan Education Foundation (BECS), as well as the Pakistan Army and local Deputy Commissioners.
