Major problems of youth

Pakistan has a large youth population an estimation showed that approximately 65 percent of Pakistan's population is under the age of 25 years. But unfortunately, the youth is deprived of their basic needs. There are countless problems the youth of Pakistan experience in their daily lives which are disappointing them. Due to unending poverty, the majority of youth in Pakistan do not have the opportunity to experience childhood. The male youth literacy rate is estimated to be 65 percent and the female youth literacy rate is even lower at 42 percent while 15 percent of the youth is unemployed. Another major problem our youth is facing at present time is frustration and disappointment because of not getting opportunities.

I request the government to provide opportunities to the youth since they are the backbone of a nation’s success.
