Maryam Nawaz Sharif has digitally launched the “Talk to CM” portal, a first-of-its-kind platform aimed at enabling direct communication between citizens, especially youth, and the Punjab government.

The new digital platform has been designed to collect ideas, suggestions, and feedback from the public regarding government policies, development projects, and welfare programs across the province. Officials say the initiative will help authorities understand public concerns and improve governance.

The launch ceremony included a detailed briefing by Senior Minister Maryam Aurangzeb, who explained the portal’s key features. She said the system includes a dedicated section for young people aged 20 and above, allowing them to directly communicate with the Chief Minister’s Office.

Through the portal, youth from across Punjab can submit proposals, share innovative ideas, and provide feedback on ongoing and future government initiatives. Users can easily register by entering their basic information and submitting their suggestions online.

Officials highlighted that the chief minister has declared 2026 as the “Year of Youth,” reflecting the government’s strong focus on youth empowerment and participation in policymaking.
