Adviser to Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister on Sports and Youth Affairs, Syed Fakhar Jahan, has urged the youth to focus on both curricular and co-curricular activities in their educational career.
He said that our youth have great talent and capabilities and there is a need to provide them opportunities for co-curricular activities in order to harness their full potential in educational institutions.
He said that the provincial government is making diligent efforts to make the youth stand on their feet and they are starting a big project of ‘Ehsaas Nojawan Rozgar Scheme’ in the province, which aims to empower the young generation economically.
He expressed these views while addressing the opening ceremony of Literary Week under Pak International Medical College at Hayatabad in Peshawar on Tuesday.
A large number of college management officials, teaching staff and students were present on this occasion. In the same festival, various activities in culture, knowledge and literature will be organized.
On this occasion, the advisor on sports said that it is very important to organize co-curricular activities like Literary Week in our educational institutions so that the students are engaged in both curricular and co-curricular activities. This, he added, is essential for the mental health of students.
He urged the youth to spend these precious moments of education and learning without wasting time so that tomorrow they can become the best and successful doctors and serve the ailing segment of society.
At the ceremony, other participants also addressed the audience, while a shield was presented to the advisor by chairman of the college Dr. Tariq Safi on behalf of the institution.
