KARACHI, Jul 27 (APP):Governor Sindh Syed Muhammad Nehal Hashmi said that dreams become reality only through hardwork, dedication and perseverance, urging young people to equip themselves with modern education, information technology and digital skills so they can play a meaningful role in Pakistan’s progress and prosperity.
He expressed these views while addressing students of a one-year Leadership and IT Classes programme.
The Governor Syed Muhammad Nehal Hashmi said that when the Youth Parliament Forum was established, it was initially met with criticism and ridicule. Rizwan Jaffer remained determined, continued his efforts with unwavering commitment, and ultimately achieved success. He said such dedicated young people are among Pakistan’s greatest assets and serve as an inspiration for others.
Syed Muhammad Nehal Hashmi said that the Prime Minister’s Digital Youth Programme is a revolutionary initiative aimed at preparing young people for the challenges and opportunities of the modern world.
“Through the programme, youth are being provided with opportunities in information technology, artificial intelligence (AI), digital skills, freelancing, startups, entrepreneurship, employment, scholarships, internships, the laptop scheme, and other modern facilities, enabling them to compete successfully at both national and international levels, he added.
He added that Pakistan’s future rests in the hands of its youth, and the government is utilizing every available resource to empower them.
Hashmi said that he has always envisioned a strong, prosperous, and developed Pakistan where investment flourishes, industries expand, and young people enjoy abundant employment opportunities. He added that Pakistan has now reached a stage where no one can dare cast an evil eye on the country.
He recalled that when laptops were distributed among university students a decade ago, he saw dreams of progress and success in the eyes of young people. Today, he said, those dreams are gradually becoming reality through the vision of a Digital Pakistan and the promotion of modern IT education.
He urged the youth to take full advantage of the Prime Minister’s Digital Youth Programme, enhance their skills, and contribute towards making Pakistan one of the world’s leading nations in technology, innovation, and research.
The Governor Sindh Syed Muhammad Nehal Hashmi also appreciated the services of Daniyal Nagori, saying that he has been tirelessly providing IT training to thousands of young people and has become an exemplary role model for the younger generation. He added that the Governor House would continue extending every possible support for technical education, IT training, artificial intelligence, and digital skills development.
Concluding his address, Syed Muhammad Nehal Hashmi said that Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah made unparalleled sacrifices for the creation of Pakistan, and it is now the responsibility of every Pakistani to transform his vision into a strong, prosperous, and self-reliant nation.
