In August last year, Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif announced one million smartphones, tablets, and laptops to top-performing students across the country.
Speaking at an event marking the International Day of Youth, organised by the Prime Minister’s Youth Programme, PM Shehbaz said that the federal government would reward one million students across the country including those from Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan, and remote areas of Balochistan with smartphones, tablets, and laptop.
Additionally, each province has its separate programs to support students, he added. Moreover, the prime minister announced that he will personally fund the education of 1,000 agricultural graduates in China, aiming to equip them with modern technology to boost agri production.
Huawei has also committed to sending 200,000 youth for IT training and advanced education, adding that he will unveil a comprehensive development plan for the country on August 14.
