The Struggle Behind Mardan University….

“We want a University in Mardan”.

Mardan district has one of the highest literacy rates in the country. The people are keen to send their children to schools. There are a number of qualified people in the government services both locally and abroad. This was told by Professor Miraj Khan,the founder of Taleem Tahrik, in a seminar arranged by MIAC.

The population of Mardan has grown rapidly and there is urgent need for more schools and colleges. Many districts like Peshawar, DI Khan, Bannu, Kohat, Abbottabad, Swat and others have Medical Schools and Universities. The students from Mardan travel to other places and stay in hostels. Many parents are unable to afford these expenses and there is a fear that the literacy rate will fall in Mardan.

So far the government has not paid any attention to the long standing demand of the people of Mardan. And that is “We want a University in Mardan”.......2003-2004

Politics of Mardan University….

Mardan University needs to be a reflection of the modern world and modern education. For many years the educational insutitutes in the country have been destroyed by the dirty politics of personal gains.The politicians as well the people must realise now that a University is a place for education only and nothing else.

Naming of Mardan University….

The trend in Pakistan is that the names of institutes ( hospitals,squares,colleges,universities and others) keep changing with the change of political govenments.This is an extremely immature thinking on behalf of the leadership of a party.The worry is that the same can happen to the name of Mardan University.The wise move will be to keep it simple.An ideal name will be..."Mardan University".
