Sindh calls for end to corporal punishment,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
The Sindh Assembly has called on the government to scrap a law that is often "misused" to justify corporal punishments at schools.
The resolution, moved by Shamim Ara Panhwar, came after the issue was raised in Geo News programme "Chal Parha" hosted by famous singer Shehzad Roy. The programme aims at reforming the education system of Pakistan.
According to the legislators, Section 89 of the Pakistan Penal Code (PPC) was being misused to justify punishing children in the country. The law allows guardians and person having lawful charge of children to punish them "in good faith for their benefit".
Panhwar said the section should be repealed because children were beaten by the teachers in schools, triggering psychological problems. The Sindh Assembly recommends that the federal government should repeal Section 89 of the PPC,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the resolution stated.
Corporal punishment was "a humanitarian issue",[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said Sindh Education Minister Pir Mazharul Haq, pointing out that some teachers tended to take advantage of Section 89 to punish students contending it was for their betterment.
Repealing this section would hopefully lead to a "pleasant atmosphere" at schools and teachers would be refrained from beating the students, he added.
Humera Alwani claimed there the school drop-out rate of 30 percent was mainly because of the beating. But Jam Tamachi contended lack of teachers was the reason,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
He seemed to defend corporal punishment,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], saying even relatives beat the children and such punishment actually "benefited" them.
Anwar Mahar seconded Tamachi,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], saying he was also beaten by his teachers and it brought "good results". He proposed that "modern teaching methods" should be introduced at schools or ending punishments "might create more problems".
Nuzhat Pathan was of the view that strictness of teachers might be good but it should not damage the child's personality.
The lawmakers also demanded starting training students in self-defence in view of the growing threat of terrorism and lawlessness in the country.
A resolution unanimously passed by the legislative house on Thursday called for reviving Girls Guide Course (GGC),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], National Cadet Course (NCC), civil defence and first-aid training at schools and colleges. The trainings were stopped in the late 1990s by the then government citing "lack of funds".
Bilqees Mukhtar, who tabled the motion, urged the Sindh government to restart the programmes for all students with immediate effect, saying such trainings had become imperative in view of the frequent bomb blasts and fire incidents.
While Khalid Ahmed said such exercised were good for health and fitness,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Farheen Mughal believed their revival would help to revive some "dysfunctional" institutions such as Civil Defence.
Shama Mithani claimed the trainings would also increase confidence among girls.
After the recent rape-cum-murder case in India,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the government had started karate training for women, said Humera Alwani.
Ostensibly in a light mood, Jam Tamachi retorted: "Already wives are hitting husbands with shoes at home,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], now they will perform judo-karate on them."
In rural areas,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], men trained women on how to use guns and axes, said Nuzhat Pathan. She proposed that women in urban areas should also be trained to fire guns or other weapons.
First the women should be trained on how to beat men with a lathi (sticks), another MPA,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Muhammad Nawaz Chandio, chimed in.
The female legislators,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], deemed the remarks too offensive.
The training for the girls was to deal with terrorism,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], said Bilqees Mukhtar, wondering why her male colleagues were discussing their "domestic problems" in the house.
