“During my student life I witnessed Student Unions which were the nurseries of leadership. They hold debates between students from opposing parties. This helped to create tolerance for differing viewpoints and helps students learn the ‘agree to disagree’ approach. Regular, annual elections were held that taught students how to campaign and build a support base. But later on they were banned. Today on the occasion of 73rd Independence Day of Pakistan and Crystal Jubilee of Youth Parliament I proudly say that Youth Parliament played an important role to fill the gap of student unions and build leadership skills in the youth of Pakistan”, said Mr. Aftab Hussain Siddiqui.

Mr. Rehan Hashmi said: “Pakistan is an outcome of Pakistan Movement led by great leaders of that time. We need success stories and polished youngsters for the bright future of Pakistan. Pakistan needs educational institutes like Aligarh”.

“Pakistan achieved great milestones in last 72 years. Beside these achievements we have done many mistakes and we must learn from them. Independence Day reminds us of the sacrifices of our forefathers and on this important day we should not forget the heroic role played by them for Pakistan movement”, said Mr. Nehal Hashmi.
