The Prime Minister Imran Khan said the government is working to transform Panahgah into a self-sustaining social welfare project where the poorest of the poor can avail all civic amenities under one roof.

He was chairing a meeting on Panahgah and Ehsas Cards in Islamabad. The Prime Minister approved the proposal of Poverty Alleviation and Social Safety Division for the up-gradation of Panahgahs into centres of excellence.

The Prime Minister also directed the authorities concerned to take all necessary measures to provide quality housing facilities to the marginalised segments of society.
