No, but you would you agree to the principle that this is the direction we should go?

Re: No new university in Hyderabad

Nobody said that. I was saying if Karachi generates Rs.100 tax and Dadu generates Rs.10 tax, it is better that Rs.95 is spent in Karachi and Rs.15 in Dadu.

^ No point arguing with someone who doesn’t understand the basic principles like ‘ratio’, ‘proportion’ and ‘relatively’.** I am not suggesting that smaller cities should have SAME facilities as larger cities. Simply saying that RELATIVELY more should be spent on smaller cities compared to larger cities** (per capita or per sq. mile or on whatever basis).

Saying that London has more facilities because it pays taxes is absolutely ABSURD. London houses more than 12% of UK’s population and is perhaps the largest city in Europe. It has ‘more’ facilities because it is BIG and those facilities are required to cater for such large population and businesses.

I can refer you to tons and tons and tons of literature in economics which would tell you that taxation is used a tool for REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH (a simple search on Google scholar should reveal that to you anyways and you yourself have given example of how ALL people in UK receive similar health and education facilities regardless of what area they live in and how much tax is generated in that area). Kindly find me any literature suggesting that government should spend more in an areas where it receives more taxation.

Bhai, you have conflicting statements in bold.

This “relatively more” is a very dangerous thing to do.

And yes the direction should be what you are saying. Not denying.

But it should be a slower process. Over time. Smaller portion over time on rural areas.

Larger portion still should go to where it came from.

We know former East Pakistan had this complaint (rightly so) when West Pakistan decided to build Islamabad for West Pakistani elites from the revenue generated by East Pakistan.

The pampered Islamabadites

^ "RELATIVELY more portion than what the tax generation ratio would determine" -- ab khush hain?

There's no conflict. If tax of Rs.100 per capita is generated from Karachi and Rs.10 from Dadu, and you spend Rs.15 in Dadu, you are spending RELATIVELY more in Dadu.

What I am saying is that if some revenue generated in Dhaka and Chittagong was spent in underdeveloped areas of Bangladesh instead of Islamabad, it would have been better.

Re: No new university in Hyderabad

^ You mean if Dadu is generating anything less than 15% and still 85% goes back to where it came from... then yes.

MQM opposing medical university, shows how much these both political parties are serious about education

Re: No new university in Hyderabad

Your are too quick on jumping to conclusions.

This issue is about renaming Sindh medical college in Karachi. I don’t think it is about creation of a new university.

CM Sindh defers SMC bill until mutual consensus is reached – The Express Tribune

BTW, who do you think is serious about education? Bhej pagaro?

Re: No new university in Hyderabad

And today PPP and MQM passed unanimously a resuscitation about students
And just after two weeks they will select a caretaker CM and cabinet unanimously.
Good for education

Re: No new university in Hyderabad

inn logon k top dramay khatam nahi hotay.

GIKI was developed in a relatively small city and yet it maintained a standard. It standards dropped but still managed to attract students from all parts of the country. Does that mean that FAST peshawar, UET taxila or FAST Islamabad does not get admissions?

Granted these are private institutes but if they are managed decently they can provide quality education whether there are good universities in both hyderabad and jamshoro... Too bad our politicians dont understand the abc of education.

Re: No new university in Hyderabad

Get this out of your mind that I follow idiots like Pagaro and Qadir magsi or Ayaz Palijo. They have their share in destroying education in Sindh.

BTW, why should not SMC be given status of University when LMC and CMC got the same status?
