MQM To Lay Network Of Educational Institutions Across Country: Amin-Ul-Haque
Posted on: 11/01/2014Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s Coordination Committee’s Member, Aminul Haque, said here on Saturday that his party after getting elected to power would set up a network of educational institutions across the country.
He was speaking at the inauguration of new classes of science at Govt Girls Pilot Higher Secondary School and while laying the foundation of a block of the school being reconstructed and refurbished with the funds of Haq Parast legislators -- Sufiyan Yusuf and Rehan Zafar. The School’s Principal, Ms Syeda Humaira Zareen and large number of teachers and students were present on the occasion.
Emphasising the need for raising the standards of education by ensuring merit in all the educational institutions of the country, he said that country could produce scientists like Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan and MQM chief Altaf Hussain only if merit and merit alone was made criterion for admissions to educational institutions.
Deploring that only 2.2 per cent has been allocated for education in the country’s budget, Mr Haque said that the MQM would strive to get the education’s budget raised by five per cent.
Lauding that the students of the school for showing their talents in both the curriculum and non-curriculum activities, he said that the MQM had always desired to help provide better opportunities to girl students so that they could prove their mettle in sphere of life.
Lashing out at the menace of unfair means in examinations, he said that the MQM was endeavouring hard to bring an end to the menace of cheating.
Pointing out that literacy rate in Karachi was 60 per cent, he said that the MQM would leave no stone unturned in getting the city’s literacy rate increased to 80 and 90 pc, but such a task would not be possible without the cooperation of parents.
MNA Sufiyan Yousuf, on this occasion, exhorted the students to cultivate self-confidence among them and strive hard to get better education so that they could serve the country.
MPA Rehan Zafar said that he was pleased that the MQM had honoured its another commitment by re-opening science classes in the school and has also embarked upon the reconstruction and renovation of its block.
Earlier, the school’s band played different tunes so as to welcome the Coordination Committee Member, Aminu Haque.

Karachi 2013: The deadliest year of all
Visualised above - the ratio of civilian deaths, to those of police, Rangers and criminals in Karachi 2013.
Visualised above - the ratio of civilian deaths, to those of police, Rangers and criminals in Karachi 2013.
KARACHI: Despite highly publicised and much touted operations by law enforcement agencies (LEAs), 2013 has gone down in history as the bloodiest year so far for Karachi with 2,700 people killed and crime soaring past 40,000 reported incidents.
Data released by the Sindh Police and Rangers shows that even though LEAs were seen to be in constant action, crime soared to 40,848 incidents of reported crime, even as thousands of criminals were arrested, raising questions about the gains claimed by the government.
Crime busting stats
With the Karachi police unable to effectively take on criminals across the metropolis, Rangers were given police powers and tasked to spearhead crackdowns against criminals.
Newly released data shows police and Rangers claimed completing almost 9,229 targeted raids in which 13,906 suspected criminals were arrested. Additionally, 8,469 weapons were also recovered in these raids.
Despite such extensive action, 2013 saw incidents of heinous crimes such as killings, extortion, kidnappings, robberies, theft, terrorism, remain at all time highs, similar to trends seen in 2012.
While 181 target killers were arrested (69 by police, 112 by Rangers), the data provided shows that 2,715 people were killed in the year.
Deadliest year for Karachi
The word ‘cracker’, a term for a tennis ball filled with explosives to make a crude improvised explosive device, became a household name in 2013, while bomb blasts now regularly mark turn of events. Yet law enforcement agencies reported the arrest of just 33 terrorists (19 by police, 14 by Rangers) in the year.
Extortion? What extortion?
In the days before the year ended, a minor was killed when a grenade was hurled into a house in PECHS locality of Karachi. Though police suspected that the incident was related to extortion, the owner of the house was reluctant to divulge that.
Police also suspected that a blast in the car of a travel agency owner was caused by explosives planted by extortionists. With estimates that only a third of extortion cases are reported, these and many other cases did not make it into police’s list of 519 reported cases of extortion in the year.
The fact that these incidents took place towards the end of a year in which law enforcement agencies claimed to have arrested 253 extortionists (101 by police, 152 by Rangers), shows that the fight is nowhere close to being won.
With 3,086 robberies in the year, including 28 bank robberies, and 10,501 reported mobile snatching, police and Rangers could arrest only 321 robbers and 149 street criminals.

Narcotics
A total of 1,441 people were booked under anti-narcotics laws, forming the third largest group of people arrested for heinous crime.
In all, success in capturing the most deadly criminals was low.
Vehicles
Vehicle theft and snatching though were the most reported crimes in the year with 26,352 cases reported. Of these, there were 22,284 cases of motorcycles being either stolen (16,083) or snatched (6,201). There were 4,068 cases of four wheelers being either stolen (3,222) or snatched (846).
26,352 vehicles were either stolen or snatched in Karachi in 2013
With over 2,000 people killed by September in the city, it was no secret that a crisis was brewing in the country’s financial hub.
Perturbed, newly elected Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif flew in to kick start remedial action. Taking all parties into confidence, and deciding on keeping the army in the barracks, a fresh assault on crime was announced in early September.
The Rangers data claims that of the 2,325 raids that they made in 2013, over half (1,283) were in the last four months of the year. These targeted raids yielded 43 per cent (1242) of the 2,874 people arrested in the year and 34 per cent (1,915) of the 5,628 weapons recovered.
Tag team crime busting
Police and Rangers undertook 9,229 security operations in Karachi
Though the bloodletting did not stop, police data claimed there were only half as many killings in September as compared to August.
Till the end of the year, the month-on-month graph of killings was in steady decline. Having peaked in March (318), the data claims that the daily average of killings for the second part of 2013 was almost half compared to the first part.
Other crimes were shown to be in decline too.
Kidnappings, dacoities, vehicular snatchings and theft, which peaked in July, were all shown to be down by almost half by the end of the year. However, in comparison to the hundreds of raids and thousands of arrests, the gains looked less impressive.
Extortions, which peaked in September with 77 reported cases (after, jump in reporting them) was steady at the year’s average number of 39 reported cases in December.
Deadliest year for LEAs
The year was the deadliest for law enforcement personnel as well. As many as 172 policemen were killed in the city, along with 19 comrades from the Rangers. In the same period, police and Rangers reported killing 105 criminals in 2013.
The Rangers were the more ruthless of the two LEAs, reporting as many as 48 criminals killed in 28 encounters.
Deadly year for law enforcers
Over 190 police and Rangers personnel were killed in the line of duty, while 125 criminals were killed by the law enforcers
