There exists a "Ministry of Youth Affairs" in Pakistan whose main purpose is supposed to provide job opportunities for the youth and to explore other avenues for the development of this human capital, which constitutes 27 percent of our total population. However, it appears that the only "productive" activity our youth is involved these days pertains to "Affairs". Hence, requiring redefining the objectives of the Ministry to bring them in line with the reality on ground and changing its name to Ministry of Affairs" only. DR IRFAN ZAFAR, Islamabad, July 23.
