Pakistan's sensational media coverage projects only the dark side of the country with a constant stream of news stories of militancy, illiteracy and deprivation. But BBC Urdu took a road less traveled and found a small village of Rasoolpur in the Punjab which demolishes some of the worst stereotypes of the country.

​

Here's how BBC describes it:

Rasoolpur is a village with a population of just 2000. Most of its residents are ethnic Baloch whose ancestors migrated from Pakistan's Balochistan province to Southern Punjab. It is located in Rajanpur district in the Seraiki speaking region. Its literacy rate is near 100%. The United Nations defines literacy as the ability to sign one's name. But Rasoolpuris hold themselves to a much higher standard; they have all their children finish high school.

There are no children out of school. It is crime-free. It is clean. There are two high schools, one for the girls and other for the boys.

No doubt..it's very clean...I did not see sewerage overflowing or anything. But I don't understand one thing..why don't they let outsiders come and live with them. I wish when I go and visit pakistan I can check this place out.

You don't need money to educate and fix Pakistan , all you need is a Plan.

Pakistan is just one step away from being a prosperous and peaceful Nation.

One step is easy to take, all you need is will.

Without a will to take the step, Pakistan will always remain standing.

Good to see that people are aware of education and they look much organized as compare to other villages.

Just one thing i did not like that People from outside are not welcome and they can not buy even land there. This is wrong practice as Pakistanis should be able to buy or live anywhere in Pakistan.

I felt that there is simplicity in Rasoolpur and there is no rat race but why do not they let others settle down in Rasoolpur ?
I want to live there.

Anyone want to visit that village let me know and we (as a group) go there and create a (sort of) documentary on their living style.

It's all about education. Give a man a fish and feed him for a day but teach him to fish then you're feeding even his family for life. Similarly, educate a man and it's only him but educate a lady and you do so the entire family. We want an educated Pakistan.
