Addressing as a chief guest at the KJP convention at Sir Syed School, Central Karachi, the governor lauded the Federal government’s successfully running” Kamyab Jawan program “.
He said youth development was the vision of the Founder of the country Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Prime Minister Imran Khan has full confidence in youth of the country and is ensuring provision of employment opportunities to them.
Imran Ismail on the occasion also announced setting up of help desk for the youth facing any kind of difficulties in KJP. Speaking on the occasion, Special Assistant to Prime Minister (SAPM) on Youth Affairs Usman Dar said that Prime Minister Imran Khan always termed the youth as the most important National asset and has launched KJP for youth development.
He said despite the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, Rs. 32 billion were disbursed among the youth under KJP. In Sindh 8 billion were disbursed out of which Rs. 5 billion were given to youngsters of Karachi for establishing their start-ups. In the Karachi Central, five hundred crore rupees are being disbursed. Kamyab Jawan is creating jobs for youth of the country, Dar stated.
Mr. Dar said that PTI MNAs and Governor Sindh particularly had been very vocal in raising issues of Sindh at the federal level. He said that primarily provincial governments are responsible for all types of development activities in their respective provinces. He stated that there is a “silent revolution” underway in Sindh.

He said although Sindh was being ruled by PPP, but PTI’s federal government had launched mega projects in Karachi including Karachi Circular Railway, Green Line Bus, cleaning of drainages and many others. The SAPM announced that 2000 shops under KJP Duka’andar would be given to youngsters intending to start their trades in Karachi. Rs. 10 billion would be distributed in Sindh under KJP under the current government.
