The founder and leader of MQM Altaf Hussain has said that social, cultural and ideological development of a society depends on its youth.
“Societies which pay attention to health, welfare and development of youth emerge as prosperous and developed nations and history remembers them in golden words”.
Altaf Hussain said this while addressing the youth on the occasion of “World No Tobacco Day”, said a statement of the MQM issued on Saturday. He said their country was passing through a difficult time. It was facing challenges and problems and the nation was looking with hope to its mature and healthy young people to steer them out of whirlpool of problems.
He said, “The growing trend of smoking among our young people are cause of concern for me. He appealed to people, especially youth, to give up the bad habit of smoking and play their role in steering the nation out of whirlpool of problems and conspiracies.
The MQM leader asked them to persuade their friends, relatives, neighbours and students to give up smoking habit. Physically and mentally healthy people are national asset, he commented.
