Chief Minister Punjab Chaudhry Parvez Elahi has said that Allah Almighty gave him the honor of establishing the literacy department in Punjab 20 years ago. In his message issued on Thursday, the CM regretted that an important department like it was neglected in the past but now, the government will pay full attention to it. The Punjab Education Sector Reforms Program of my earlier period was appreciated at every national and international forum, he maintained and pointed out that his government had also started free books and scholarships for girls. The CM asserted that all possible steps will be taken to impart quality education to out-of-school children and necessary resources will be utilized to equip the neglected sections of society with education and skills. Today, we reiterate our commitment to teaching everyone, the CM concluded.
