Education

Average Litracy rate is about 42% and there are large numbers of public and private primary and secondary schools. During Musharraf Rule Alipur was heavily urbanised and a heavy enrollment in primary schools was seen.There are also large numbers of Religious Mudarsas that provides free religious education mainly to lower class. During Musharraf rule the Government High school Ali pur was one of top and leading teaching institute but during democratic government of PPP the school was ruined because the teaching staff started opening their own academies and schools. The same circumstances can be seen with Government Post Graduate College Alipur. The soil of Alipur has provided a lot of Judges, CSP officers, Armed forces recruits, Professors, Doctors, Engineers, Athletes and religious scholars to serve the nation.

Private sector in Education has great competition in the area, most of the school are working under the partnership of Punjab Education Foundation.

Transparency has been improved in testing due to NEEF management.

Agriculture

Wheat, cotton and sugarcane are the main crops but due to negligence of the governmental agriculture and irrigation departments, its land is being wasted to soil malfunctions and floods. Pomegranates, mangoes and dates used to be the famous fruits of Alipur long time ago but they are getting vanished now.

There is a strong need for the development of the area as there's no industry, no railway station or no any business opportunities. The feudals here control everything, no higher educational institutions have been set up here since its existence, and it is considered amongst the most deprived and neglected areas in the country. The people of the area are hard working, hospitable and friendly.
