These figures when combined with vulnerability groups escalate to 50% of poor and vulnerable. The largest minorities comprising of Hindus remains marginalized. These are the groups who can only afford public sector schooling and are at risk of not going to school or dropping out. Amongst these, girls and women remain even more vulnerable particularly in the southern districts of Punjab with large landholdings belonging to landowners holding on to feudal and rigidly patriarchal mind set. RYK is unfortunately also associated with the exploitative supply of the ‘camel jockey kids’, and more recently, their return and rehabilitation with the assistance of the Child Protection and Welfare Bureau (CPWB) of Punjab Government and UNICEF. 4 Source: Punjab Development Statistics- 2005 Baseline Assessment Study Report - District Rahim Yar Khan Page 5 of 23 Rahim Yar Khan District: Education Profile In 1998, 33.1 percent of the population was reported as being able to read at least one language.
