Extracurricular Activities Should Be Equally Recognized Along With Academic Marks.

The Issue

Students spend most of their time studying academic and non academic subjects where as amongst these students there are some students who devote their precious time in conducting extracurricular activities such as organizing events, seminars , playing sports or by being part of a society.This helps them to get wide exposure of how a practical work is being done rather then just writing it or imagining it which is totally a different thing.Moreover they are not just spreading their name , they are representing their university & institute too. These type of students should be equally recognized by providing them scholarships based on their extracurricular activities rather sticking on providing academic scholarships only. By any means these students should be supported as these students are working their way towards becoming the future entrepreneurs , a great sport player , an event manager or someone who is going to shape the future of Pakistan in a positive manner by providing employment or by any means.

The only reason I am writing this is because of the fact that only a handful of institutes are providing their support to these students but there are  large number of universities & Institutes in Pakistan where these types of students are not recognized , not even a certificate isn't provided to them to recognize their abilities and their work.So alot of these students go to abroad where their activities are being recognized which leads to "Brain Drain" where as if proper support is provided to them I am sure that they can do alot better in their own country then going abroad. By supporting this petition You would be able to voice your support for these type of students.
