Qatari Princess Her Excellency Sheikha Aisha Binte Faleh Al Thani on Friday handed over 17 schools to Azad Jammu and Kashmir government. A Qatar-based non-government organisation (NGO) Reach Out To Asia (ROTA) has rebuilt these schools, which were demolished in the 2005 earthquake.

More than 23,000 children will now have access to Education because of these efforts.

Reach Out To Qatar

Reach Out To Asia has helped build schools in areas that were hit by the devastating earthquake in 2005. However, ROTA maintains a twin approach to Reaching Out that includes Reach Out To Qatar and has worked on doing various community service projects in Qatar, including building computer labs in some schools!

Education = the ability to make an informed decision by oneself after considering all verifiable facts and opinions.

Religion = do as you are told, think like this and don't ask difficult questions

"Deaths in the Bible. God - 2,270,365

not including the victims of Noah's flood, Sodom and Gomorrah, or the

many plagues, famines, fiery serpents, etc because no specific numbers

were given. Satan - 10."

Supernurse this has nothing to do with religion and I hope it is kept that way.

Does this have anything to do with religion? Oh, I'm sorry I thought it was about education?....

I really appreciate when the rulers make such humanitarian acts.Today the muslim world needs the power of knowledge,a jihad in education.

The other oil rich GCC countries should help the less fortunate fellow muslims through education.Then only ISLAM will reach its pinnacle/
