  1. This is a very positive step by PM for the youth and development of Pakistan. Every one can avail the opportunity according to his/her needs. Only those people are opposing this scheme who are living in luxurious houses, travel in imported vehicles, and having expensive laptops. Only those people know the importance of this opportunity who haven't felt the cold breeze under the AC's. I hope and believe these schemes will give rise to a new Pakistan.

  4. ووکیشنل ٹریننگ پروگرام کے بارے میں کوئی اپ ڈیٹ ہے؟
    میں کوئی ہل چل نہیں ہوئی اب تک شاید NAVTTC
    اسی نے ہی ٹریننگ پروگرام بنانا تھا، جو اب تک شاید نہیں بنایا! یا پھر بنا لیا ہے؟

    کچھ روشنی ڈالیے اس نقطے پر۔
