Literacy has not yet been accepted as a felt need in Pakistan especially
in the rural areas. Feudal culture obtaining in rural Pakistan is
not conductive to the promotion of education. Illiterate male adults
in rural areas are generally not interested in acquiring literacy
skills because of age factor and on account of preoccupation as
bread-earners of the family. They are also generally not in favor
of women going to literacy centers because of pressing work in the
home. Inadequate schooling opportunities also inhibit girls to seek
education. |
