CM Maryam Nawaz’s Laptop Scheme has attracted over 19,000 students from outside Punjab, showing nationwide trust in her leadership. Originally for Punjab students, the program’s wide appeal highlights the demand for digital support in education.
The scheme aims to boost digital literacy by providing laptops to deserving students in Punjab. Many face barriers in accessing technology, and this effort helps bridge that gap. Students from Sindh, KP, Balochistan, and AJK have also registered.
Though laptops are reserved for Punjab students, national interest has sparked debate about expanding such programs. Many are urging the federal government to launch a similar initiative across Pakistan.
The strong response also reflects rising youth support for CM Maryam Nawaz. Her focus on education and inclusion is gaining appreciation beyond party and province lines.
In short, the scheme not only supports Punjab’s students but also sets an example for national digital education policies.
