Ghazni Teachers Demand Start of Long-Delayed Plot Distribution
Teachers in Ghazni province are demanding the immediate start of plot distribution in a township located three kilometers north of Ghazni city in the Sheikh Abdul Salam area.
The township was inaugurated in 2014, with legal procedures completed and plot allocation certificates issued to hundreds of teachers nearly 15 years ago. However, implementation has stalled since then.
Teacher Mohammad Halim Farooqi and others expressed frustration over the delay, urging authorities to proceed without further postponement. Fellow teacher Mukhtar Ahmad and lecturer Masood Pashtoon echoed the call, highlighting the long wait for eligible educators.
Mawlawi Nasir Ahmad Hussaini, the Education Director for Ghazni, stated that efforts are underway to distribute the plots. He attributed the delays to challenges including the usurpation of another township and the large number of eligible teachers.
The province has around 14,000 teachers, including women, who teach nearly 450,000 students in about 700 schools.
