Lahore:Under the guidance of Child Protection and Welfare Bureau (CPWB) Chairperson Sarah Ahmad, the CPWB has organised its first-ever wedding ceremony of two boys and two girls brought up there.
Chairperson Sarah Ahmad shared that this is a significant achievement for the Bureau, as it not only provides protection to children but also creates opportunities for them to move forward in life. The couples who tied the knot include Aamir and Farah, as well as Zubair and Nazia. Notably, one of the couples is hearing and speech impaired, she added. With the Bureau’s support, these couples are now capable of leading a dignified life, the chairperson said.

he Bureau has secured employment opportunities for both couples.
