Around 90% of girls in rural Balochistan are deprived of schooling. Except for provincial capital Quetta, educational institutions are non-existent in Baloch-dominated areas of the province. Most neglected parts of the province where Baloch girls are not educated are Buleda (Makran), Kharan , Bolan and Marri and Bugti tribal areas.
