The youth are the future of any nation and are the most valuable capital. Pakistan is one of the few countries where more than 65 per cent of the population is under the age of 35. Sadly, around 40 million of our young people are unemployed or unskilled. This dire economic situation is a sign of the brutality and ruthlessness of our ruling class. There is a lot of anxiety and despair among young people because they are uncertain about their future and they do not see any prospects for themselves in Pakistan.
There is a need to implement more policies to support young people such as the establishment of technical educational institutes to build skills and the creation of more employment opportunities.
