Had a meaningful interaction with Youth Parliament of Pakistan @youth_ppk. It was a great privilege to join these brilliant young people and address them. I deeply appreciate the important initiatives of YPP under President @Ubaid_Qu and Chairman @AbrarUlHaqPK in empowering our youth and creating real opportunities for them. I shared my journey from student leader to the Parliament of Pakistan — a path made possible by the invaluable guidance of Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto. Her vision still lights the way to the highest echelons of public service. It is our duty to help today’s generation achieve their goals. Student Unions are the basic nursery that grooms young minds, prepares them for healthy competition, and produces the leaders of tomorrow. The time has come to lift the ban and restore Student Unions. Equally urgent is the full implementation of the Civic Education Commission Act 2018, so that the Constitution and civic education become a mandatory part of our curriculum. Focused effort, sincerity to the cause, commitment and determination lead to success. Those who walk this path — the sky is the limit. #YouthParliament #YPP #StudentUnions #CivicEducation #PakistanYouth @PresOfPakistan @AseefaBZ

Honoured to have met The Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Councillor Zaker Choudhry as a guest of the Pakistan Youth Parliament's delegation, who invited me to join their meeting with him. The conversation gave me a closer look at how local governance works here in Britain and the local government model, devolved authority, council-level accountability, and grassroots delivery…Set against Pakistan's, where local bodies remain structurally weak and almost ineffective: delayed elections, limited fiscal autonomy, and provincial and political reluctance to devolve power downward. Much of the public frustration with governance in Pakistan traces back to this gap. Without functioning local government, there's no tier close enough to citizens to actually be held accountable for service delivery. A useful case study in what local governance looks like when it's genuinely empowered. Grateful to the Youth Parliament @youth_ppk and @Ubaid_Qu President Youth Parliament, for the invitation, and to the @BrumLordMayor’s office for such a welcoming and thoughtful exchange.

Honoured to speak at the ECOSOC Youth Forum 2026 Side Event on “Advancing the Climate–Water–Peace Nexus: Strengthening Inclusive Governance and Partnerships for a Sustainable Future.” From Pakistan’s perspective, I highlighted how gender-inclusive governance is not optional — it is essential. Women and youth are not just affected by the climate-water crisis; they are the most powerful agents of change and must lead the solutions. Water must become an instrument of cooperation, not conflict. Pakistan stands committed to inclusive, resilient, and peaceful development through strong partnerships. #ECOSOCYouthForum #ClimateWaterPeace #GenderInclusiveGovernance #SDG6 #SDG13 #SDG16 #SDG5 #SDG17 #Pakistan #YouthLeadership #WomenInLeadership
