Justin Trudeau makes me think that the ‘age and wisdom doctrine’ is unnecessary in running a country
HYDERABAD: The young Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, makes me think that the ‘age and wisdom doctrine’ is unnecessary in running a country. He governs his country efficiently and better than our elderly leaders. The chief ministers of our provinces continue to dream about future governments instead of taking much-needed actions in the present time.
In Pakistan, government employees retire at the age of 60. Why are sexagenarians and octogenarians expected to handle entire provinces? It is time the youth be given an opportunity to lead the nation to the best of their abilities.
