When we talk about Quality of Education in Pakistan,several queries come into mind, Poor Literacy Rate,Difference of Education standards for different people or a clear Partition between English Medium and Urdu Medium institutes,Continuously varying Education poilicies of the govts.,Restriction of Women education in a large area of rural Paksitan,Ghost Schools and many other issues echo in our minds about quality of education. But if we think in a lateral angle the most unfortunate condition of Paksitan's education or Education policy is "No Research Oriented" mode of education.We study for job not for Knowledge or research.It is really disappointing that our Technology Universities doesn't produce good enogh Research Scholars or PHDs.In 50 years UET produce only 4 PHDs.We are urge to go for higher education in foreign countries.
If we took a narrow look of top thousand Universities of the world, the difference is not their structural infrastructure but the infrastructure of research conducted there is root cause of their prominance.We have no doubt world class institutes like LUMS,GIKI,PIEAs,IBA and Agha Khan Medical College but unfortunately they are even not much focused towards Research. Even our history depicts clearly that Muslims were on the zenith when their focus was Research and lost their focus when they leave Research.I think its prime time come to build excellent state of art Technological Research Institutes in Paksitan and encourage Researchers and Scientist to contribute their best for their country.Beleive me if we establish such Research oriented society, we don't need to go to MIT or Harvard but people seek addmissions to Pakistani Universities for the thirst of their knowledge.

Shayad kay teray dil may uttar jajay meri baat
