Nazim contended that education is an imperative responsibility of the government. Thus, he asserted the significance of establishing a system where education, spanning from the foundational years to the highest academic levels, is accessible to all without financial barriers.
He stressed the importance of bearing the costs associated with research PhDs, which contribute to the nation’s advancement.
“I hold the belief that it is the duty of the government to facilitate education. In our administration, the provision of free education from primary stages up to the pinnacle of PhD studies holds profound importance. Equally vital is the financial support for PhD research endeavors, especially when they stand to benefit the country. This, I maintain,” elucidated Nazim.
Furthermore, Nazim emphasised the need for an educational approach that nurtures diverse skill sets within students during their academic journey. He underlined the necessity of equipping students with a range of proficiencies that align with the demands of the job market.
Nazim outlined plans to integrate vocational training into the educational framework under the purview of the MNP government.
