Child protection and welfare bureau destorying by Khadim e Aala

Child protection and welfare bureau destorying by Khadim e Aala


LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League leader Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi said the Punjab government is damaging institutions meant for the welfare of deprived children.
Talking to a delegation on Monday, he said the self-tiled Khadim Aala of Punjab is destroying these essential institutions because they had been set up by the earlier (Q) government. This also resulted in the flight of foreign support previously guaranteed for these projects, he said. Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi said that his government had established the Child Protection and Welfare Bureau in Punjab as a department in 2004.



The driving force behind this department was my personal motivation to alleviate the miseries of children begging at traffic signals and in busy squares, he said, adding from the camel children to the socially neglected young ones we had arranged accommodation, education and social support for thousands of such most neglected children of Punjab. 

He said that the department of Child Protection & Welfare Bureau was established through an Act of the Punjab Assembly. He said that under this initiative, his government had set up child protection institute, child protection units, child help line, open reception centre and special schools for these children. 

These child protection units were established at Lahore, Rawalpindi, Multan, Faisalabad, Sialkot, Rahimyar Khan and Bahawalpur. We provided shelter to more than 10,000 children separated from their loved ones. Such children also included the 2005 earthquake victims. Pervaiz Elahi accused Shahbaz Sharif government for trying its level best to destroy all such public welfare initiatives credited to Pervaiz Elahi’s earlier government of Punjab.
