It makes no sense to arm teachers in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. What about the others? The provision of security and protection to life and property is the constitutional right of every citizen of Pakistan. This proves that the federal and provincial governments have failed to discharge their constitutional duties and therefore have no right to remain in office anymore.
Does the government want to convey to the world that we have failed and are unable to provide protection to our future generation? What will the world think of us given the fact that we are a nuclear nation? Afghanistan never resorted to this drastic measure even in the worst security conditions. Just imagine how hilarious it would look when a teacher is holding a gun in his hands and teaching morality or non-violence to students or tables in educational institutions are adorned with guns instead of pens.
