‘Pass the High School without any exam.! What sort of an educational reform is this? Why do we have to be innovative to such an extreme degree? Are we talking about a party? It amounts to making a mockery of the pursuit of excellence that is hard work?’ This is how a B.A. Part I student of Allahabad University reacted to the latest proposals made by the HRD Minister Mr. Kapil Sibal.

More than 600 members of the Belgian Pakistani community looked on while 50 Pakistani youth commit to live drug-free lives at this week's celebration of the 62nd anniversary of Pakistani independence held in the Belgian capital.
