Prime Ministers Youth Programme Chairman Rana Mashood Ahmad Khan has said that the future of Pakistan lies in the hands of its youth.
Addressing the inaugural ceremony of the Prime Minister Youth Development Centre at Superior University here on Monday, he said that opportunities were available at national and international levels for youths who were passionate and committed. He emphasized that it was the government’s job to provide platforms and facilitate young minds, adding, “We did this throughout our life. We introduced a number of youth initiatives in the past and are proud of it.” He noted that Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif had a special vision for the youth, which was why Punjab introduced the first Youth Policy in 2010 when Shehbaz Sharif was the Chief Minister of Punjab. It was determined in the policy that if Pakistan were to make progress, it must invest in its youths, he added.
