JI starts a program to provide free laptops.

The JI supremo made these remarks in front of thousands of pupils who took the BanoQabil 4.0 aptitude test in Karachi’s Gulshan-e-Iqbal neighborhood.

He stated that the country deserved a system founded on equity and called for a single system, standard, and curriculum for the 250 million people who live in Pakistan.

Educationist Dr. Ishrat Hussain, former test cricket player Sadiq Muhammad, seasoned actors Behroz Sabzwari, Ayaz Khan, Zaiba Shahnaz, and others graced the event to inspire and encourage the participants.

About 60% of Pakistanis are under 30 years old, according to Engr. Hafiz Naeemur Rehman, who spoke. Similarly, he maintained, 80 percent of the population is under 40.

In this backdrop the youth need to channelize their energies instead of inclining towards mass exodus, he said, adding that the youth need to invest their time in learning emerging skills.

He highlighted the huge potential in the information technology-based exports and said that the BanoQabil program would be a game changer in this regard.

During the past couple of years, over 48 thousand students have completed the BanoQabil courses, he said, adding that the party was also playing an active role in facilitating the BanoQabil graduates in their job hunt.

On the occasion, he announced that 10,000 laptops will be distributed among BanoQabil graduates in the first phase on the basis of their performance, so they can start earning a livelihood from within the international market.

He urged the youth in particular and Karachiites in general to fight for their due rights and get rid of the dishonest rulers.

Pakistan belongs to the youth and not to generals, capitalists, or influentials, he said.

JI Karachi Ameer Monem Zafar also addressed the participants. He said that the youth were being misled about the future of Pakistan. He urged them not to get distracted by propaganda and to serve their motherland.
