He who plants a tree plants hope. It is students who hold the future of Pakistan in their hands. The military has the mandate to safeguard the geographical boundaries of Pakistan; youth have the obligation to protect its ideological peripheries. The world perception for Pakistan is changing for better, not for nothing; it is so because Pakistan is fast on the path of progress, persistently projecting positive image.

This was the upshot of the tri-fold event held at Sindh University - tree plantation under PM's Green Pakistan plantation drive, motivational lecture by General Officer Commanding (GOC) Hyderabad Cantonment Major General Muhammad Kashif Azad on the topic "The Role of Youth in Nation Building" at the auditorium of Shaheed Mohtrama Benazir Bhutto Convention Centre of the varsity, which was packed to capacity with students; and paying of homage to the valiant-Pakistan Air Force pilots for downing Indian trespassing plane the same day last year i.e. February 27.

SU vice chancellor, in his welcome remarks as the event chief host, said youth power was a recognized force in the world. Event chief guest and keynote speaker Major General Azad, in his impressively outlined and efficiently-structured PowerPoint presentation, impressed upon youth to shun despondency, believe in action, stay disciplined, strive for self-improvement, embrace diversity, avoid incivility, adapt to change, work to serve not just to earn money, stop inclining to inferiority complex as nation members, dream big and take pride in who and what they were.
