The country was in dire need of such initiatives of social development which resulted in the overall uplift of the people, the PM added.

Balochistan Caretaker Chief Minister Mir Ali Mardan Domki said the provincial government was committed to providing every possible opportunity to the people of Balochistan.

He said the provincial government had decided to set up the Balochistan Skilled Development Fund under the supervision of the Planning and Development Department.

Ali Mardan Domki said the government of China showed interest to provide a $60 million grant for the development of Balochistan, of which the provincial government had the intention to use fifty percent on skilled development of youth.

Federal Minister for Education Madad Ali Sindhi said imparting skills to youth was the main ingredient of empowering them by helping them qualify for employment.

He said the launch of programme from Quetta was significant because it encouraged the local youth to benefit from it who deserved it the most.

He said the objective of the programme was to provide skilled training to 56,000 people all across the country and mentioned that the skills were linked with international certification.

Balochistan Minister for Revenue Amjad Rasheed expressed gratitude to the Prime Minister for the launch of programme for the youth, which he said would end their dilemma of joblessness.
