In a tweet, the prime minister expressed his delight at the nationwide launch of the Prime Minister’s laptop scheme, which marks the continuation of the remarkable journey initiated by the PML-N government in Punjab under the leadership of Nawaz Sharif.

He stated, “There is nothing that brings me greater joy than contributing to the empowerment of our youth and students, who hold the future of our nation in their hands.” The prime minister further highlighted the fascinating journey of how laptops have assisted students in their studies, enabled them to become entrepreneurs, and pursue fulfilling careers over the past decade.
