The Sindh government has hired 319 music teachers so far, with plans to hire an additional 400 if they are re-elected. “Today, the Sindh government of Pakistan Peoples Party has linked the relationship of its future generations with this eternal beauty and love,” stated Sindh Education Minister Sardar Hussain Shah in a social media post on X (previously Twitter).
After receiving an offer letter at a ceremony held in Karachi on Thursday by the Sindh Education Department, he was promoted to his current position.
The Sindh government has made this their top priority
He remarked, “We believe in our cultural and spiritual roots, which are based on the great tradition of Sufis,” while also emphasising the importance of using the arts and music to promote Pakistan as a “enlightened, progressive, tolerant, and humanitarian” nation. Furthermore, he said, it would aid in the elimination of all forms of prejudice. Shah thought the programme would help kids learn new skills.
A senior official of the Pakistan People’s Party, Farhatullah Babar, said with delight that “Sindh has become the first province to formally induct music & fine arts teachers in secondary schools.” An excellent plan to counteract a strongly held belief system. Congratulations, and keep going!
Singer-cum-philanthropist Shehzad Roy agreed that the provincial administration had shown initiative. He stated this idea in a social media post by saying, “In a society, we should teach each other to coexist and celebrate diversity instead of just tolerating one another.”
He went on to say that the government was giving musicians a voice so that they could help mould the future and foster unity among young people. It was said that candidates without National Music Academy diplomas would not be considered for employment. The initial plan for BSP-14 included hiring 750 new music teachers.
