Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar has given, in principle, approval to establish more centres for the rehabilitation of women victims of violence. The Rawalpindi and Lahore centres will be activated soon and the facility will also be extended to other cities. The CM expressed these views while presiding over a meeting at his office to review the performance of Punjab Women Protection Authority (PWPA). PWPA Chairperson Kaneez Fatima briefed about the performance and future roadmap. The CM also directed the Punjab Women Protection Authority to review the utilisation of existing buildings for new centres and surplus employees be utilised, instead of new recruitments. He assured all-out support to the PWPA and directed it to take steps for providing best services along with the timely nomination of divisional committee members. “The PWPA is the best platform to protect and redress the women suffering from violence or abuse.
