Abstract
Pashto is an ancient language, spoken in Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa (Pakistan). Efforts for the Pashto
medium of instruction were continued before the
existence of Pakistan. For this purpose many
prominent personalities presented their unforgettable
services. Among these were included politicians,
educationists, social workers, religious leaders
(ulama). For the promotion of Pashto medium of
instruction various projects were, such as Pashto
Translation Project, Pashto Dictionary Project, PakGerman Project, IDMC Project, and PEP-ILE. So
textbooks and related material were developed which
provided ease in implementation of Pashto medium of
instruction.
The opposition from non-Pashto speakers particularly
Hindko speakers performed the most active role as a
hurdle in Pashto medium of instruction.
