Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor has said that she would love to go to Pakistan to promote the education of the girl child.
Asked whether she would ever consider going to Pakistan for promoting girl child’s education, the Bajrangi Bhaijaan actress told IANS: “Of course yes. I would love to go anywhere to spread the message of girl child’s education.”
According to several reports, the percentage of the girl child’s education in Pakistan is very low as compared to boys. While the Pakistani government puts the overall literacy rate at 46 per cent, only 26 per cent of girls are educated. Independent sources and education experts, however, estimate that only 12 per cent of girls are literate in the country, according to a UNESCO report.
