Pakistan will deploy guards at schools in the Punjab province to boost security against terror attacks, a media report said Tuesday.

The local administration has begun a survey in 36 districts to identify the schools that need security, the Online news agency reported.

Meanwhile, officials have declared about 60 schools are vulnerable due to the absence of boundary walls.

The education department has been asked to adopt the new security measures formulated by the provincial government, the report said.
