Chief Minister Balochistan, Dr Abdul Malik Baloch, expressed dissatisfaction over non-functioning of Hub Technical Centre while the employees have been regularly drawing their salaries.



Talking to a delegation of Lasbela, headed by Pakistan Muslim League-N MPA Prince Ahmed Ali Khan, he emphasised the need to promote technical and vocational education to create job opportunities for the youth of Balochistan in the industrial sector.

“The government employees posted at the Hub Technical Centre have been drawing salaries regularly but the technical centre does not meet its objectives as it is still non-functional and does not provide technical training to youth of Balochistan,” said Dr Malik.

He said that the issue of unemployment can be resolved by promoting technical and vocational education in Balochistan.
