In the meeting, a detailed discussion was held to improve the social and economic conditions of minorities, and various suggestions were made for the successful implementation of the project.

The participants stressed ensuring the inclusion of widows, the poor, disabled, and unemployed persons in the program and suggested that the PMT score be fixed at 40 so that the maximum number of people can benefit from it.

The provincial minister expressed hope that this program would prove to be an important step in improving economic opportunities for minorities and ensuring their welfare.

He requested all stakeholders to submit their suggestions to the Human Rights Secretary so they could be organized into a comprehensive draft.
