Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif extended her congratulations to the top achievers from Punjab’s educational boards, as well as their parents and teachers, applauding their remarkable achievements despite limited facilities, resources, and supportive environments.
At an awards ceremony, she expressed her pleasure, noting, “We are thrilled to see that among the 138 position holders across nine boards in Punjab, 70 are girls and 68 are boys.”

The pilot phase of this program will start in South Punjab,” she announced.
