ISLAMABAD:

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday congratulated youth on the International Youth Day, saying prosperity of youth guarantees progress of the country.

He took to the social media platform X, saying more than sixty per cent of the Pakistan’s population consisted of youth.

Allah had bestowed upon Pakistan innumerable natural resources and young human population which were a source of strength for the country, he added.

The PM said unfortunately, in the past, no special attention was given to the progress of youth.

“But, with the grace of Allah Almighty, whenever people trusted me with the responsibility to serve, I used all my energies for the progress of youth,” he added.  APP
