Future of Pakistan in hands of educated youth: Mushahid

Date : January 2, 2014

ISLAMABAD, Jan 1 (APP): Secretary General of Pakistan Muslim League and Chairman Senate Defence Committee, Senator Mushahid Hussain Sayed on Wednesday said that bright future of Pakistan is in the hands of educated and talented youth. He said this while addressing an interactive session ‘Catch the Moment with Mushahid Hussain’ organized by NUST Bazm-e-Pakistan to discuss the country’s past, present, future successes and failures.
“Educated and talented youth will take the country forward on the road of peace and prosperity,” he added.
Mushahid Hussain Sayed said the calendar of Pakistan’s founding year 1947 and 2014 have not only similarities in the sequence of days, but also in the sense that 1947 was year of withdrawal of the British Empire from the region and hopefully 2014 will be proven as the year of withdrawal of US and NATO forces from the neighboring country, Afghanistan.
Paying tribute to Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, Mushahid, termed him the man of character who changed the destinies of millions of Muslims of the sub-continent.
“Women and Youth Wings were the most effective wings of Muslim League of that time, under the dynamic leadership of Quad-i-Azam, who played the vital role in the independence of Pakistan and without the practical support of his sister and Mother of Nation Mohatarma Fatima Jinnah, it was quite difficult to achieve the goal” he said.
He said that the unconditional and blind support of the Muslims to their beloved leader was the actual force behind this historic achievement.
Highlighting the achievements of Pakistan, Mushahid said the country’s positive contributions for international community are widely recognized. They are specially acknowledged by the Muslim countries like Bosnia, Afghanistan and Arab states, which consider Pakistan as a “source of strength and inspiration.”
