Progressive thinking is ‘need of the hour’
LAHORE: Only progressive thinking in the youth can set a new narrative to make Pakistan in accordance with the ideology set by the father of the nation; Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah.
Dr Umar Saif, founding Vice Chancellor of Information Technology University (ITU) Punjab, said this while briefing the media representatives on Thursday. The two day event “Afkar-e-Taza” ThinkFest was being organised on January 13-14, 2018 by ITU Punjab at Alhamra Mall Road in collaboration with Federal Higher Education Commission, Punjab Higher Education Commission and other private sector organisations.
He said that a blend of prominent personalities and speakers of international repute from academia and literature would motivate women and youth at the event by providing a forum to raise their voice. It was the first time in Lahore that any Nobel Prize Laureate would be among the keynote speakers.
