Abstract = {Pashto is an ancient language, spoken in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (Pakistan). Efforts for the Pashto medium of instruction were continued before the existence of Pakistan. For this purpose many
prominent personalities presented their unforgettable services. Among these were included politicians, educationists, social workers, religious leaders (ulama). For the promotion of Pashto medium of
instruction various projects were, such as Pashto Translation Project, Pashto Dictionary Project, Pak-German Project, IDMC Project, and PEP-ILE. So textbooks and related material were developed which
provided ease in implementation of Pashto medium of instruction.
The opposition from non-Pashto speakers particularly Hindko speakers performed the most active role as a hurdle in Pashto medium of instruction.},
