A new trend took over Twitter this morning, the hashtag #GirlsEduMatters started to trend as one of the top 10 topics of the day. This is because according to the most recent reports, there are about 5,265,529 girls in Punjab who are out of school (Punjab-PSLM 2019-20).
Moreover, in order to ensure every girl out of school receives education by 2030, Punjab will provide a stipend/monetary incentive and the nutritional support needed to encourage parents to send their daughters to school.
