KARACHI: The official website of the Sindh Investment Department (sindhinvestment.gos.pk) has been hacked by a group calling themselves Anonymous with a warning to close all schools in the country.
“Student Lives are no joke! Shut the Schools down now. Students are the real assets of a country, don’t destroy your assets.” the warning message reads on the Sindh Investment Department website after being hacked.
It is pertinent to mention that the government has decided to keep all educational institutes open despite the rising number of coronavirus cases in Pakistan since the last few weeks.
During a meeting on Monday of all education ministers and the National Command and Operations Centre (NCOC), it was decided that schools will remain open for now with another meeting scheduled for next week.
Meanwhile, the Sindh education minister Saeed Ghani says that there should not be any more vacation days including winter holidays as students cannot afford more education losses.
