Education Reforms in Punjab, Skilled Workers Earn More Than Doctors? Podcast Ft. Rana Sikandar

In this deep-dive podcast, we sit down with the Education Minister of Punjab, Rana Sikander Hayat, to address the burning questions regarding the current state of our education system. We discuss the controversial reality behind privatizing government schools, the true purpose of our existing curriculum, and the shifting economic landscape where technical skills are challenging traditional degrees. Why is a plumber potentially out-earning a doctor in today's economy?
