Prime Minister Imran Khan has announced financial support for the families of differently-abled persons under the second round of Ehsaas Kafalat program.
PM Imran Khan made the announcement on his official Twitter handle, mentioning that under the Ehsaas Kafaalat Policy for Special Persons, two million differently-abled individuals will receive a monthly stipend of Rs. 2,000.
According to the government and other sources, Pakistan has up to 27 million differently-abled persons, 0.27 percent of the total numbers worldwide, which is one billion.
In this regard, Pakistan had adopted a bill to curb discrimination against millions of differently-abled Pakistanis through the joint parliamentary session.
It ensures equal participation of differently-abled persons in politics, education, employment, and equality before the law. The bill also protects them from abusive, intolerant, and discriminatory behavior.
