Our country's literacy rate declined from 60 percent to 58 percent, revealed the Economic Survey of Pakistan (2016-2017) that was released on May 2017. Currently, 31 million girls are out of school worldwide, out of them 3 Million girls are of Pakistan. 30% of girls are educated in Pakistan as compared to boys. There are many reasons behind the less admission of girls in schools, transport to school is the one of the major reason for the girls.
