A major step forward has been taken in Pakistan’s education sector. On May 13, 2025, the National Assembly approved a groundbreaking law that reserves 25% of university seats for eligible students to receive free education. This legislation is a beacon of hope for underprivileged and deserving students who dream of pursuing higher education but face financial barriers.
The approval of this law will not only improve access to quality education but also foster progress in health and technology sectors. Along with this, two other important laws were also passed “Institute of Science and Technology Act 2024” and “International Examinations Board Act 2024.”
Member of Pakistan Peoples Party, Agha Rafiqullah, proposed amendments to the Institute of Science and Technology Act, ensuring that 25% of seats are allocated for free education for eligible students. This measure is especially significant for students whose families are unable to afford higher studies, opening a pathway for them to achieve their academic goals. Education is the key to development, and this initiative aims to make it accessible for all.
From basic education to global standards, this law turns dreams into reality. It reflects the government’s commitment to democratizing education and ensuring that every child has an equal opportunity to succeed. We believe that implementing this law will improve the educational landscape of Pakistan and provide more young people with access to quality learning.

This are positive steps by the government and demonstrate dedication to building a brighter future for Pakistani youth. We pray that the law is implemented swiftly and benefits as many deserving students as possible. Education is the foundation of a prosperous nation, and such laws are essential for national progress.
We are optimistic that this move will help shape a better, more educated Pakistan and empower the next generation. It’s an important milestone toward creating equal opportunities and fostering national development.
