Bacha Khan Education Foundation.

Bacha Khan Education Foundation.

Bacha Khan Education Foundation has decided to establish 300 educational institutions across the Pakhtunkhwa and its adjacent tribal areas.The foundation will provide subsidised and free education to boys and girls of under-developed areas and neglected communities.
Foundation’s managing-director Brig (retd) Ishaq said the foundation would be able to set up a complete network of educational institutions throughout the province and tribal areas. Under the programme, he said, five primary and two high schools and a college would be established in every district of the Pakhtunkhwa.
Asfandyar wali khan said that the foundation had started its activities when some elements resorted to bombing and threatening education institutions, particularly girl schools in the region. He said that such elements were trying to deprive girls of modern education.
Khan said his party wanted to revive the Bacha Khan Education Foundation to impart quality education to the young generation. He said the foundation would provide books and uniforms free of cost to students. He appealed to the philanthropists to assist the foundation in this respect.
