IT has been rightly said `when you can`t read, write and speak in your mother tongue, your thinking ability is destroyed`.
Pick any educational expert and he willrecommend education in the mother tongue.
Recently, the PTI-led Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government at the behest of its coalition partner Jamaat-i-Islami has put a ban on the Pashto paper for Class V from this year onwards.
I wonder, what could be worse than this when a party like JI makes policies for education.
The PTI, so-called votary of change, should not agree to such demands of its allies. Education is an important matter.
Our survival depends on it. Policies related to education should be made under the supervision of educational experts.
