Great news.
Whole nation (especially KPK) is fighting out of corruption and ignorance through education.
Nice job

One opinion of Imran I totally agree with is this country needs education more than any other thing!
I hope this budget is well allocated and spent.

Rs 111 billion out of 404.8 billion for KP equates to 27.42% http://www.dnd.com.pk/kpk-budget-2014-15-amounting-rs404-8-billion-announced/
Rs 273 billion for education + Rs 60 billion for new schools out of 1.034 trillion for Punjab equates to 32.2% http://www.dawn.com/news/1112505/punjab-cabinet-approves-budget-proposals-for-2014-15
not sure the claim in the thread title is accurate.
even if you remove the 60 billion for schools, it comes to 26.4% in Punjab, so these are not big differences.

I am a bit confused about these figures, more than 20% budget on education, is excessive,
India for comparison spent (US$ 840 million out of total expenditure of US $ 280 billion;thats less than 0.3% of the expenditure). Something is wrong with these figures guys or Pakistan's definition of education is very different.

We should do a toss between post#6 and #7 to find out which one is based on fact.

States/Provinces generally allocate around 15% of their budgets for education I think in India.

Good stuff. Each province has almost the same budget with +0.x here and there. Education is the need of the hour.

Good to see that due to PTI Pressure PML-N is also doing some good work. If there was usual PPP in opposition. they would have been doing less than this. Just we have seen in their previous terms (both PPP and PML-N).

That's what a proper opposition does for Pakistan. Forces even the incompetent to get their act together.

From all reports The PTI has made a decent start but it needs passion and zeal in its performance to convince the doubters that they are making a real difference. If they are rubbish then people will and should vote them out.

Important article here on education in Pakistan, which shows a focus on spending rather than quality of education exists in Pakistan and this is not getting the country far:

We should eventually move towards the western/Canadian standard where every teacher must have a Bachelor of Education to teach in a primary school. If you want an example closer to home just look at Japan, teacher salaries there are the fifth highest in the world just behind European countries like Germany and Switzerland. Teachers in my opinion are some of the most crucial members of society, a good teacher can completely change a generation. I still to this day remember the teachers who inspired me.
Curriculum needs to be drastically improved. More emphasis on science, math and computer education is the need of the hour.

I agree with you whole heartedly [MENTION=138254]Syed1[/MENTION]
A good teacher can do wonders.
I had to use internet lectures for exams due to lack of good quality teachers. I have seen teachers encourage ratta, what will such students do in real life and professionally?

Bhai those numbers are correct according to the budgets of each province difference is in Kpk the money seems to be utilized properly. Where as Pmln and PPP use it to hire ghost teachers for votes and school construction projects to their friends. Someone was telling me his a thekhedar won a 800million contract from Kpk government but returned it as no one was willing to take bribes to let him do sub standard work
