A youth delegation called on Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Nawaz Sharif on Saturday.
Punjab CM Shahbaz Sharif was also present on the occasion. Nawaz said that the Punjab government had launched various programmes for making the youth skillful and created job opportunities for them. He said that not only job opportunities will be available to the youth through these programmes but the younger generation will also stand on their own feet. The PML-N president said that programmes such as distribution of loans on soft terms, steps for promotion of technical education, distribution of laptops to talented students and the Yellow Cab Scheme were being implemented. He advised the youth to benefit from these programmes and play their due role for development of the country by making hard work their motto. Shahbaz said that 30,000 talented students had benefited from the Punjab Educational Endowment Fund until now and were completing their education through scholarships not only inside the country but abroad as well.
