    Recently i came across one of your podcast regarding Health card ... In which guest told how government has enabled every citizen to avail best available health services from hospitals just by giving them a particular amount to spend yearly ... This single initiative has started sprouting new hospitals even in villages .... If government can reciprocate same provision of giving every student a particular amount yearly to spend than for sure it will kick start a new revolution ... Will bring a flock of students to school , and bring quality school to remote places of the country . A 4 lane road can contribute to economy in a limited way but if a student given right guidence he can return even 1000x return to investment spend on quality schooling.

    I remember Edkasa getting Seed money from USAID and hoped to see them grow. Glad they made it and you finally called Fahad, though Anum should have been invited as well. It's heartwarming to see army children sticking to their guns to commit to Pakistan's growth. The lack of availability of network tech in rural areas is a big bane in Ed tech and needs to be addressed by gov itself through public-private partnership. Internet and network providers despite having small scale projects, are not willing to offer it where it's not lucrative. Besides, unless we won't rectify Early childhood and primary Edu in Pakistan, we can't errect a strong skilled nation on a weak foundation.

    These green thumbnails are very boring and give more of a political talkshow vibe. Previously, the colourful thumbnails such as those which were used in the beginning with three different colours excited me just by looking whereas now I have to click and its only when the actual podcast is played, then I get the same high quality vibe. Edit: These are only my thoughts as a 22 year old listener. I enjoy your show a lot and that is the only reason I am comfortable in sharing my feedback

    Let's analyze: He was sent to the best institutions nationally and internationally and is providing the education in such a way - nothing is comparable to the one he got, thinking that students would be like him successful, is nothing but an illusion; more precisely a businessman. I am sorry to say but I can't buy that. No offence.

    Talk about why women take mehar ? Why don't they give Mehar and take care of their husband financially? First sort out the burden of Mehar and Nan Nafqa that is imposed on men by the State and society then promote supporting your wife's career at the expense of your own career.

    First read your religious Book to find out why Haq-Mehr is given to women, and then reflect upon the value your mother added to the household by taking care of you and your family 7 days a week, without any break! A woman's contribution to a man's life (esp. by leaving her own aspirations aside) is much much more than the Haq Mehr you unwantingly give her. Then you also get Jahaiz from your wife to fill your house with furniture and still come here to complain! May Allah bless you with some knowledge and wisdom before you end up ruining a girl's life!

You're surely clueless about both women and religion, and their role in a man's life. Chill till you can't survive without them coz a woman brings to the table everything that a man can't! You wouldn't be here without a woman! On a serious note, only a bitter person bites, so do some introspection on why do you mentally compete with women and don't value them. If men allow women to work after marrying them, they bring a lot more to the table than a man can!
