Pakistan yesterday embarked on a plan to create a think-tank comprising a select group of bright and young scholars for provision of innovative solutions to socio-economic challenges premised in science and technology. Under the plan, the youth of the country would be given an opportunity to express their views and identify problems facing the country as well as to come up with concrete and economically viable solutions. In this regard, the Commission on Science and Technology for Sustainable Development in the South (Comsats) will organise a national meeting, aimed at providing an interaction forum to youth and experts to discuss socio-economic issues.
