Pakistan is a developing country and is far away from achieving the national and international educational targets. There are many stumbling factors in this regard like lack of educational funds; poor school facilities; poor management; absence of schools; unavailability of teachers; patriarchy and lack of awareness about the importance of education. The study explored the resisting factors in accomplishing the educational targets in South Punjab, Pakistan. Qualitative research was done to complete this study and data were taken from secondary sources, National and International organizations, newspapers, books and periodicals and other published material were also used for completing the research. It was found that structural as well as community level disparities were responsible in non-achieving the educational targets to enroll every child in the school in South Punjab. On the basis of secondary data it is recommended that the enrollment rate in primary level could be achieved by increasing the educational budget, making new and more advance infrastructure, providing scholarships to needy children, motivating the community members to interact with school administration, hiring well qualified new appointment on the urgent basis for achieving the primary educational targets in south Punjab
