HIGHER education plays a pivotal role in the shaping of a nation’s future. Nations cannot survive without education.

Sukkur is the third largest city of Sindh. It is deprived of an engineering university, though Khairpur, a smaller city, has three universities, both engineering and medical.

A few years ago, an engineering university had been approved for Sukkur city but it was shifted to Khairpur owing to the chief minister’s influence.
