    Sindh's Missing Campuses: Where the Road to a Degree Runs Out (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    In Sindh, a child’s education can end long before a university gate comes into view. On paper, the school system is vast. Officials say the province has more than 41,000 government schools and between 12,000 and 13,000 private ones, serving nearly nine million students, yet around 7.6 million children remain outside the system altogether. The loss begins early. In a 2024 briefing, the education minister told the chief minister that over 4.1 million children were out of school after primary, beca

    After 18 Years in Power Sindh Still Faces Basic Governance Challenges (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Sindh government has now run the province for 18 years without a break. Nine months into 2026, the record shows a government that acts after the damage is done and rarely explains why. Take public safety. By 28 September, 56 people had been killed in Karachi this year while resisting robberies, the latest on Sunday night in Scheme 33, where a 35-year-old man was shot twice in the head for his motorcycle. The provincial government controls the police, so this toll is its own. Earlier this mon

    Sindh’s Education Department Keeps Finding Problems After They Become Scandals (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I want to start with the detail that still makes me stop and reread it. In Jacobabad, in 2019, two Sindh Education Department employees, a teacher and a peon, were declared dead so their families, or someone posing as their families, could collect death benefits. The payout came to Rs 4.9 million. A month later, both men turned out to be very much alive, and quietly resumed drawing their salaries as if nothing had happened. Nobody in the department noticed the resurrection either. An outside ant

    Nisar Khuhro is not Defending Sindh, He's Defending His Party's Grip on it (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I will state my position up front. I think Sindh would be better governed with smaller administrative units, closer to the people who actually live under them, and I think Nisar Khuhro’s conduct this past week shows exactly why that reform keeps getting strangled before it ever reaches the public. Start with what he actually said. His entire complaint against Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi was that Naqvi had dragged the Field Marshal into politics. Then Khuhro did it himself, more directly than

    Smaller Administrative Units Could Help Fix Sindh’s Education Crisis (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    People in Sindh sometimes make a joke, but it isn’t really a joke. Ask someone from a rural district how far the nearest government office is, and they won’t give you a number in kilometres. They’ll give you a number in hours. That tells you almost everything you need to know about why girls in some parts of this province still can’t read, while girls a short drive away in central Karachi mostly can. It’s tempting to blame the budget. Every year there’s a new allocation, a new promise, a new fig
