Sindh Women Workers
The Sindh government has taken a revolutionary step for working women by launching the Sindh Women Workers Welfare Program 2025, which is not just a scheme but a life-changing package for the working class. Now 10,000 industrial women will be given free electric bikes, so that they can go to work independently and get rid of expensive daily travel expenses. This facility for women is not only environmentally friendly but also a means of protecting self-esteem.
In addition, workers will now be provided with free treatment of up to seven lakh rupees annually in more than 270 hospitals, which is part of the health insurance scheme. Not only this, the death grant has been increased to one million and the marriage grant to five lakh. A major change has also been made in the housing sector, where solar-powered houses will be built instead of flats, so that the workers can have a better and electricity-free life.
And my dear, the most amazing thing is that now the data of all workers is being linked to NADRA and EOBI, which will make it possible to eliminate fraud and distribute aid transparently. At the same time, the Workers Welfare Board has allocated Rs 3 billion for investment in Shariah-compliant Sukuk bonds.
