Performance of Tanzeem Al-Lisaan lauded

The Punjab government takes it as a challenge to bring the special children into main stream of the Pakistani society as an integral part of our social fabric. There is a dire need to put concerted efforts by both the private and public sectors to meet this challenge.
This was stated by Secretary Special Education, Punjab Abdullah Sumbal, while addressing the ceremony of certificates distribution among the newly trained female teachers of special children at the central campus of "Tanzeem Al-Lisaan".

This will culminate the ability in the special children to excel in higher education also advancing shoulder to shoulder with the normal students at the regular educational institutions with a touch of class. The Secretary Special Education lauded the performance of Tanzeem Al-Lisaan in imparting specialised training to the female teachers of the schools meant for the special children only. He distributed certificates to the participants of the teachers training programme and inaugurated "Tanzeem Al-Lisaan Library".
