LAHORE: First lady of Pakistan Bushra Bibi visited a shelter home in the provincial capital on Saturday.

According to details, during her visit, Bushra Bibi was accompanied by her friend Farah Khan.

The wife of Prime Minister Imran Khan directed to complete the work at the shelter home as soon as possible. Adding, all basic facilities including a proper meal should be provided to the homeless.

Earlier in November, Prime Minister Imran Khan laid the foundation of the shelter home project in Punjab province’s Lahore city.

The project was aimed at housing a number of homeless people who usually spend nights on footpaths or other places in different areas of Lahore city.

The PM, during the ceremony of inaugurating shelter homes, said that his party’s aim was to turn Pakistan into a welfare state and the target could not be achieved without helping the poor segments of the society.

“Should we allow our people to live on footpaths. Our government is bringing a first of its kind poverty alleviation package within a week or two in which all relevant departments will work under a single setup to eliminate poverty,” said Imran Khan.
