HYDERABAD: “I am amazed to witness the exceptional talent of the pupils studying at Dr N.A. Baloch Model School University of Sindh, Hyderabad,” said Vice-Chancellor, University of Sindh, adding that the quality, character and caliber of the skits performed by the school children were nowhere less than excellent; which reflected the unusual confidence and competence of the students.
