Reopen Turbat Public library
“A LIBRARY IS A HOSPITAL FOR THE MIND.”
– ANONYMOUS.
Thank you, the Government of Balochistan,
Thank you, political parties,
Thank you, concerned authorities for not taking any action against this critical issue and thanks lots for converting the Only Turbat Public Library into a warehouse. Sorry to say we live in such a society where books have no importance and value.
It will be a laughable joke if I say Turbat Public library is closed since November 2020 and Turbat people need restaurants, Banks more rather than libraries, as it is no more priority of stakeholders.
The unavailability of well equipped Public Library in Turbat is a big loss. Unfortunately, no political parties, students organizations civil societies seem to be serious on this burning issue. On the other hand, the civil servants from Kech who used to say big talks by promising to give top priority to education sector once if they qualify CSS and PCS.
Undoubtedly, today Kech is home to hundreds of civil servants but still Turbat City’s one and only Public Library is closed since November 2020. This indicates Turbat needs restaurants rather than libraries as it is no more a priority of stakeholders.
