 Conclusion
Sense education is developing not only mind but it also
cleans and grooms our body and soul. We not only get
education for economic reason but to handle social,
political, psychological, ethical, legal and spiritual
issues of our life. Education turns a raw human into a
polished human being which becomes human capital of
any nation and key to the development of that country.
With education many countries are ruling the world
and have become leaders in the comity of nations. The
current system has made our younger generation
direction directionless and uncertain about their future so
they are leaving Pakistan and settling down in developed
countries.


Conclusion
The lawlessness, fear of loss of life, terrorist attacks,
unemployment, inflation, exchange rate fluctuation,
overpopulation, poverty, taxes and IMF loans are
producing forces of degree holders without any vision,
mission, critical thinking, reflection, analysis, research
and creativity. Our outdated curriculum is pushing our
youth towards stone age instead of directing them
towards the fast-changing technology driven world.
Traditional teaching is giving theoretical knowledge to
students but practical learning is missing.

11
Conclusion
Finally, education reforms are the only solution to
change the existing education system so following
recommendations are suggested for the policy
makers, thinkers, researchers, educationists and
common people. Hope it will add value in the
research and development of both student and
teachers.
