By Hamid Khan Wazir
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: The Federal Minister for Communications Murad Saeed said that for the first time in the history of Pakistan, the current government is committed to producing highly skilled youth by providing them opportunities to their doorsteps.
He said that the government is providing opportunities to make our youth skillful.
He expressed these views while speaking at a certificate awarding and cheque distribution ceremony under the Kamyab Jawan Program held at the National University of Modern Languages (NUML) in Islamabad on Friday.

Murad Saeed said that the government is providing easy loans and arranging training programs for youth to make them self-sufficient rather than relying on the government to provide jobs. They should start their businesses and produce jobs for others too, he said. The Minister was of the view that by innovation and ideas a man can do wonders, he quoted the examples of few successful businessmen and said that success cannot be achieved overnight.
Speaking on the occasion, Usman Dar said the federal government’s Kamyab Jawan Program was ensuring financial inclusion of the poor and marginalized segments of society. He praised the role of NUML in the image building of the country at the international level and said that more scholarships will be awarded to the students of NUML.
