Many people in our society have good degrees but they lack knowledge. The only reason behind these degrees is fake certificates. Hub City is one of the cities of Balochistan where many schools have been doing the business of fake certificates and have been earning a lot from this illegal act. 

Unfortunately, this issue has not caught the eye of the concerned authorities. These schools provide certificates from class six to class eight in three to four thousand rupees and it has become a business for many school honours in Hub City. There was a time when people used to teach for the sake of changing others’ life but now one can not expect such things from these schools.

This act devalues those people who burn the midnight for getting their degrees when they search for a job they are always rejected because one can not differentiate between a fake and an actual certificate.

Recently, I met a boy who had got a fake certificate of class 8th in three thousand rupees from a school. The thing that made me think was that the boy was not able to read and write. The purpose of education is not to have a certificate but is the ability to read and write. We urge the concerned that they should look into this matter and take serious steps so that the actual purpose of education is fulfilled.
