Caretaker Chief Minister of Punjab Mohsin Naqvi extended warm greetings on the auspicious occasion of Eid Milad-ul-Nabi, emphasizing the universal mercy that the Holy Prophet (PBUH) bestowed upon humanity. Describing the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as the epitome of virtuous qualities and lofty values, Chief Minister Naqvi highlighted how his arrival brought illumination to the world’s darkness, offering solace to the vulnerable.
In a brief span, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) established an exemplary social and economic framework that continues to illuminate the path for the entire world. Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi emphasized in his Eid Milad-ul-Nabi message that true devotion to Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) entails following his life and teachings. He pointed out that the solutions to the challenges faced by the Islamic world lie within the Prophet’s biography. The Prophet (PBUH) imparted teachings of peace, brotherhood, respect for humanity, equality, forgiveness, and justice.
Chief Minister Naqvi reflected on the regrettable decline of our society, attributing it to our collective neglect of the cherished teachings of the beloved Prophet (PBHU). To reclaim our standing among the community of nations, he urged a genuine adherence to the noble example set by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He emphasized that by embracing the teachings of the Holy Prophet (PBHU), we can uproot oppression, maltreatment, injustice, and unrest from society. Celebrating Eid Milad-ul-Nabi necessitates living our individual and collective lives in accordance with the Prophet’s teachings.
Meanwhile, Naqvi inspected the classrooms and interacted with both boys and girls. His visit was marked by concern upon witnessing children affected by conjunctivitis in the classrooms.
Naqvi expressed hope that a four-day respite for the children would lead to a reduction in the spread of conjunctivitis, with the situation anticipated to improve on coming Monday.
He noted with concern that in every class, 6 to 7 students were affected by conjunctivitis, and even some teachers had been afflicted. The school’s computer lab housed outdated, non-functional computer systems dating back to 2009, and the classrooms lacked adequate lighting and fans.
Promptly addressing the issue, Chief Minister summoned the Secretary Schools Education and EDO Schools.
On the instructions of Chief Minister, Provincial Minister School Education Mansoor Qadir also reached the school. Chief Minister also ordered to buy new computers and increase the number of lights and fans in the classrooms. He further emphasised the need for a fresh coat of paint and the assurance of basic amenities in the classrooms.
Naqvi also paid visits to the principal office and the staff room. Attentive to the students’ concerns about insufficient lighting and ventilation, he personally inspected each classroom, engaging with the children.
The chief minister visited various departments of the school and issued directives to the relevant authorities for the improvement of the school’s conditions.
