As most of you might already know, a tax is being imposed on incoming university/college fee at the rate of 5% wherever the annual fee exceeds Rs. 200,000.

Education being among the basic amenities entitled to us as citizens of this country is not something to be used for generating revenue in the name of ‘Advance Income Tax’.

Although this tax is adjustable and is an ‘Advance Income Tax’, but still there are a lot of students who are from backward areas and also those who are supporting their own education by doing part-time jobs or working online. This system of taxation is totally unacceptable and Pakistan needs #TaxFreeEducation.
