LAHORE: Under the historic welfare vision of Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz, the “Dhee Rani Programme” has achieved remarkable success in a short span of just nine months. A total of 66 dignified collective marriage ceremonies have been organized across the province, ensuring the honourable union of 4,857 underprivileged couples.
According to the Programme’s Focal Person and Provincial Minister for Social Welfare & Bait-ul-Mal, Sohail Shaukat Butt, the initiative has been executed in three highly successful phases.
