Transparent Distribution and Special Attention
The CM directed that the process of distributing the aid should be transparent and preferentially cover orphans, transgender, and terrorism-affected families. He also talked about the aid to be provided to all transgender residents in the province and completing distribution at least before the 15th of Ramadan. The salaries and pensions will be issued much earlier on February 25.
Other Endorsements are Education and Infrastructure
