The chief minister said, “With a wheelchair, persons with disabilities will no longer need assistance for mobility.” Under this programme, eligible individuals can apply for wheelchairs and hearing aids.

Applications can be submitted online via the Social Welfare Department’s portal (awc.punjab.gov.pk), enabling applicants to complete the process from the comfort of their homes.

Highlighting the government’s commitment, Maryam Nawaz said, “The rehabilitation of special persons is among the Punjab government’s top priorities. I want them to live lives as easy and fulfilling as others. Seeing special people happy is one of life’s greatest joys.”
