Q3. Write a paragraph about the problems of the students in Pakistan.
Students in Pakistan face many problems in their daily lives. Some schools do not have clean water or proper toilets. Many children have to sit on the floor because there are not enough chairs or desks. Some teachers do not come to class on time, and students miss their lessons. In some areas, girls are not allowed to go to school, which is very unfair. Many students walk long distances to reach their school. Some do not have books, pencils, or school bags. They want to learn, but they do not have the things they need. Also, electricity often goes out, so students cannot study at night. Many children also have to work to help their families, so they miss school. All children should get a good education. The government and people should work together to solve these problems and help every child go to school happily.
