In a separate development, the Sindh Education Department has uncovered around 5,000 ghost teachers who were receiving salaries without performing their duties.

Sindh Education Minister Syed Sardar Ali Shah has ordered their removal from payroll and initiated disciplinary action against them.

To address the staff shortage, the department plans to recruit new teachers from the merit list, replacing the ghost employees and strengthening the education system in Sindh.
