Unemployment has emerged as a pressing concern in Pakistan. Recent data reveals that the country's unemployment rate stands at an estimated 8 per cent, exacerbating the challenges faced by its citizens. A particularly worrisome trend is the high rate of unemployment among young individuals, forcing many to seek job opportunities abroad. The government and relevant authorities must recognize the gravity of this issue and respond promptly to mitigate its impact.
Creating a favourable environment for job creation should be a top priority. By generating more employment opportunities, especially for educated young people, the government can address the root causes of unemployment. This can be achieved through sustained economic growth and the promotion of industries that match the skills and qualifications of the workforce.
