Sir: There was a picture in the newspapers showing 6,000 candidates taking an examination for 605 Rescue 1122 jobs in Lahore. The picture carried two important messages. One, the plight of the Pakistani education system — the candidates were taking the examination sitting on the floor without any rug or carpet underneath, that too in scorching heat in the open air. Two, the level of joblessness in a single province of Pakistan. One wonders where is Khadim-e-Aala Punjab, Mian Shahbaz Sharif and his dedication for education. MUBASHIR MAHMOOD Karachi
