The ultimate goal of an education system is to produce a better citizen and create a better society. In this regard, it is the responsibility of state to design its education system on sound grounds. In Pakistan, there is dual education system, modern education system and traditional Madrasah system. Modern education system prepares its students on the bases of western education pattern while Maddris develop their students in the light of their own respective schools of thought. Thus, the two educational systems are producing two different categories of graduates, leading to imbalance and intodlerance in the society. To bridge this gap between the two systems and to make the education system harmonious, the government has passed “Pakistan Madrasa ‘h Education Board Ordinance ". Three model Maddris have been set up as a pilot project in Karachi and Sakkar for boys and in Islamabadfor girls. It was supposed to be extended in other cities as well but due to the reservations of Ulamd ' and their bitter opposition, the process did not get due attention among the public. In this paper, the authors will try to bring out the Ulamd’s reservations on "Pakistan Madrasah Education Board” in order to bringforth the policy suggestionsfor the betterment of the program.

Efficiency of Power Generation Companies in Pakistan: Application of Non-Parametric Approach published in Ilkogretim Online - Elementary Education Online

Power generation has a central role in the economic growth of every country specifically, in developing countries like Pakistan where, there is scarcity of electricity. Efficient and cheap generation of electricity can assure continuous country's economic growth and development. Therefore, the objective of current study is to investigate the efficiency of Power Generation (PGs) firms in Pakistan for the tenure of 2014 to 2018. These PG firms are also known as Independent Power Producers (IPPs) in the country. This study has applied Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the value added approach is followed over the study for selection of the input and output variables. Sales and power generation is selected as output variables while the selected input variables are gross capacity, fuel cost and labor. The findings of study states on average level the Technical Efficiency (TE) of these PG firm is founded at the level of 72% while Pure Technical Efficiency (PTE) is 86% and Scale Efficiency (SE) is 85%, respectively. Moreover, it was also found that there is an increasing trend in the efficiency of these PGs firms for the tenure of five years. Furthermore, the Tobit regression results suggest as that age is negatively pertained with efficiency whereas, liquidity is found as positively pertained with the efficiency of PGs. Size is found as positively pertained with TE and SE whereas, negatively pertained with PTE in contrast, debt is found positively pertained with PTE and negatively pertained with SE.
