Sindh Minister for Information and Labour Saeed Ghani has said that the Sindh government had always given priority to provide quality education and modern health facilities under Sindh Employees Social Security Institution (SESSI) hospitals and educational institutions.

This he said while receiving the progress of health and educational facilities being provided to the labourers and their children during the 153rd Governing Board of SESSI at his office here.

He said that Pakistan Peoples Party under the vision of Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari always wanted to see the workers and labourers to prosper in Sindh. He said that the institutions created by Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Shaheed Benazir Bhutto for the well being and welfare of the members of the labour community were exemplary. Former president Asif Ali Zardari also always gave priority to the legislation not only to protect workers' economic rights, but also their basic rights.
