PM Imran to launch 'Kamyaab Jawan' programme shortly.

Prime Minister Imran Khan is addressing a ceremony in Islamabad to launch the ‘Kamyab Jawan’ programme – an initiative for the welfare of the country’s youth.

Briefing media about the programme in Islamabad earlier in the day, PM’s Special Assistant on Youth Affairs Usman Dar said the programme was focused on ensuring employment opportunities to the youth.

No amount of people’s tax is incurred on the programme as it is supported by UN Development Programme, he added.

A similar scheme was launched by former PM Nawaz Sharif in 2013, aiming to provide loans to the youth.
