Prime Minister Imran Khan launches Single National Curriculum first phase

Meanwhile, he also spoke on the occasion.

The PM said it was his vision to bring a uniform syllabus and end the class based education system in the country.

Furthermore, he appreciated the Ministry of Education for taking a first step towards this end.

He said nowhere in the world are three Curricula as is the case in Pakistan where the students of public and private educational institutions and the religious seminaries are studying different syllabus.

The PM said he knew that bringing a uniform curriculum will be a difficult task as the elite system will not allow this change and create hurdles in it.

However, he assured that the process that has been started is irreversible.

Furthermore, he said this will take our youth to one direction and rid them of the invasion of foreign cultures.

Imran Khan said that the govt has also decided to teach Seerat un Nabi to the students of grade eight, nine and ten.

He asked the Minister for Education to enforce the uniform syllabus for these grades in the next five to six months after deliberations.

Unmatched achievements of Holy Prophet SAWW

He said the betterment of our youth lies in the fact that they learn from the unmatched achievements of Holy Prophet Muhammad Sallallaho Alaihe Wa Sallam Khatim-un-Nabiyeen.

Moreover, he said this will also help our youth better understand the religion and they won’t be misled by the elements who misinterpret the religion for their vested interests.

Imran Khan said the minorities will also be provided with opportunities to learn about their respective religions.

He noted respect for humanity as the very foundation of teachings of all the holy prophets.

Meanwhile, Minister for Education Shafqat Mahmood also spoke.

He said the govt is implementing the first phase of national single curriculum in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir.

He further claims credit to Centre’s endeavor that Sindh also adopts this curriculum.

The Minister for Education termed it a big step towards ending injustice in the society.

He underlined the uniform curriculum as fulfillment of the election manifesto of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf.
