Highlighting the pressing need to realign the focus of government teachers in Azad Kashmir, Haider emphasized that the new education policy will facilitate the operation of schools in collaboration with private institutions under a public-private partnership model. This collaborative effort is expected to significantly enhance the education system in the region, as Haider asserted that societal development is intrinsically linked to the improvement of the education system in Azad Kashmir.

Citing the dilapidated state of schools and the education system in the region, Haider criticized previous governments for prioritizing infrastructure projects such as roads and bridges over educational reforms. He lauded the swift and commendable actions taken by Education Minister Diwan Ali Chaghtai, noting that significant progress has been made in a remarkably short span of time.

Furthermore, Haider underscored that in alignment with the vision of Chairman Tehreek-e-Insaf, the Azad Kashmir government has initiated concrete steps to foster a highly educated, skilled, and self-sufficient populace in Azad Kashmir. He expressed confidence that the tangible benefits of these initiatives would soon reach the people.
