PUNJAB – (Staff Reporter/Web Desk) – Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has announced a huge gift for students. Under the new plan, Maryam Nawaz free electric bikes students will soon be a common sight across the province, as the government prepares to hand out 100,000 electric bikes to students for free.
She shared this news while speaking at a ceremony in Arifwala on Thursday. According to her, the government wants to make life easier for students who struggle with daily travel to school and college.
This is not the only gift on the table. The Chief Minister also announced 100,000 free laptops for students. On top of that, 50,000 merit-based scholarships will be given out too. These steps are part of a bigger plan to support education across Punjab.
CM Maryam said that government schools are being turned into modern learning spaces. She explained that children from poor families and rich families will now get the same facilities. In her words, education is a force that removes differences between people.
She also spoke about safety. The Chief Minister said law and order in Punjab has improved, and daughters in the province are safe. She asked parents to keep their children away from unsafe places during the rainy season.
Sadly, she brought up a recent tragedy. Fourteen children lost their lives when the roof of an under-construction house collapsed. She said this loss deeply saddened her and the whole government.
Maryam Nawaz reminded everyone that the Punjab government is responsible for 130 million people, including millions of students. That is why education and student safety remain top priorities for her team.
She also talked about transport. Green electric buses are being expanded so children without proper travel options can move around safely and comfortably. This addition works alongside the free electric bikes plan to solve transport troubles for students.
The Chief Minister encouraged children studying in government schools to feel proud. She said her government is working hard to bring the same quality found in expensive private schools into every public school.
One project already turning heads is the Nawaz Sharif School of Eminence. Maryam shared that five thousand students applied for just one thousand seats, showing how much people trust this new school system.
To fix old problems in government schools, the province is spending Rs40 billion. This money will bring new classrooms, furniture, clean washrooms, safe drinking water, fans, and other basic needs that many schools have lacked for years.
The government is also building science, math, computer, and IT labs. For the very first time, artificial intelligence labs are being introduced too. Maryam said this step will help Punjab’s students learn the same modern skills as children in developed countries.
She urged students to focus on learning artificial intelligence, machine learning, and robotics. According to her, these skills will decide who succeeds in the coming years.
Before ending her speech, the Chief Minister shared one more big update. She revealed that 300 modern schools will be built across Punjab soon, calling this only the beginning of major changes coming to the province’s education system.
