Federal Minister for Planning, Development and Special Initiatives Ahsan Iqbal said that the nation will have to gain knowledge at the highest level ad warned that those who lack a love for knowledge will always live in slavery. He made these remarks while addressing students after the launch of 13 different projects at the University of Narowal on Monday.
The minister said that Narowal University students must exhibit knowledge, talent and skills so that their counterparts across the world look to them for inspiration and prospective students aim to enroll in the institution.
"Success comes only through leadership, knowledge, thought and unity. Narowal will observe that we have prepared the university for future generations," Iqbal said. "It was my dream to make Narowal a city of knowledge and today, I am happy to say that that dream is turning into a reality," he added.
The minister said efforts would be made to keep Narowal University open 24/7 like institutions in the United States and the United Kingdom. Iqbal regretted that during the tenure of the PTI government, development of the country grinded to a halt.
