Syed Murad Ali Shah, the honorable chief minister of Sindh province, imposed education emergency last year in September in a bid to bring back children dropped out of school. Furthermore, to ensure good quality education is imparted, he has chosen 10 technical education institutions, about two in every division, for upgradation.

From among these, Mr. Shah chose 10 institutes for phase I of upgradation. These institutions will be transformed to impart high-quality education and training to students so that they can stand out in the crowd and bring laurels to their college and country.

Propagation of Chinese Language

Mr. Murad Ali Shah also insisted on the propagation of Chinese language. He directed the representatives of STEVTA to make provisions for the introduction of courses in the Chinese language. CPEC (China-Pakistan Economic Corridor) will bring in numerous Chinese investors to Sindh and proficiency in the Chinese language will be an added advantage in the future.
