“We are introducing a new programme to be called 100 100 100.
This is a federal government’s commitment to ensure that 100pc Pakistani children will be enrolled in schools, 100pc children will be retained in schools and finally, InshaAllah 100pc will graduate from schools,” he said during his budget speech.
He said that this was a solemn commitment of not just of Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi but the entire parliament to the children of Pakistan.
“Even though education is a devolved subject, but federal government will help, both financially and administratively, each and every province to achieve this goal.
“This is not about politics and parties. This is a national commitment that I make today to the children of Pakistan.
We will educate you (Pakistani children). And we will insist on 100 100 100,” he added.
