Arif Alvi, the president of Pakistan, has urged the country to unite in the battle against issues such as poverty, malnourishment, stunting, and mortality of mothers and newborns.

According to Xinhua news agency, the President made the comments at an occasion and said that 26 million children in Pakistan are still not enrolled in school.
