PUNJAB Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif has announced 50,000 internships for students.

Not only has he announced internships, but also laptops and yellow cabs. It is a great effort for educated students.

A lot of students will benefit and get experience in their related fields.

Many Kashmiri students are studying in universities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad.

I urge the chief minister to include Kashmiri students in his scheme or package.
