Sindh government decided to regularise the services of 21000 contract teachers. This decision was made by the Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah after meeting the teachers association representatives. The  provincial government  decided to regularise the services of 21,000 teachers that have appeared in NTS exams as well as tests held at Sindh University and Iqra University. The teachers have been protesting the non-regularisation of their services for more than two weeks.

The chief minister said that he was ready to resolve all the issues of the teachers' issues as long as they support him in improving the standard of education in the province.
