| The Education Ministry has sought details of schools operating under the banned Jamaatud Dawa charity, to hand over control of such institutions to provincial educational departments. Following the recent government ban on the charity, schools run by Dawa in the Tribal Areas and other parts of the country were also closed. Initially, heads of institutions previously operating under the charity will be changed, and new headmasters will be appointed on recommendations by provincial educational departments. Sources said there was also a possibility that these schools might be converted into seminaries and their control handed over to non-government organisations. |
