News Desk

QUETTA: In a concerning development for the education sector, 94 lecturers and assistant professors from Balochistan have traveled abroad and have not returned, raising alarms about the brain drain in the region.

The educators, who were reportedly sent for various academic and professional opportunities, have not returned as expected, prompting officials to express their concerns over the potential impact on the local education system.

The Balochistan Education Department is currently investigating the circumstances surrounding their departure and the reasons for their prolonged absence.

This mass exodus of educators could have significant implications for Balochistan’s educational landscape, which is already facing challenges such as a shortage of qualified teachers and inadequate infrastructure.

The loss of these professionals may hinder the quality of education and exacerbate existing issues within the province’s academic institutions.

Authorities are expected to convene meetings to address this issue and explore measures to retain qualified educators in Balochistan.

The government may also consider implementing policies to incentivize teachers to remain in the province, ensuring that students receive the education they deserve.
