Middle school of Nok Kundi has total strength of 270 and there are no sufficient classrooms for students.

“Our students have no choice but to study in open sky without any furniture,” said Mohi-ud-Din Notezai who is the headmaster of the school. He added that the formal notification of the school is still awaited.

Primary School of Killi Mengal Abad has strength of 105 and there is only one appointed teacher. The school premise doesn’t have any boundary wall and it’s a cause of inconvenience for students, journalist’s delegation learnt.
