| Kaira advises poor people to give children to BM |
| 2010-06-19 |
| [Dawn] Information Minister Qamar Zaman Kaira on Friday has advised poor families, which cannot take care of their children, to hand them over to Baitul Maal instead of killing them. While addressing a gathering regarding Pakistan Baitul Maal, Kaira admitted that the federal and provincial governments cannot control poverty and unemployment. He said it was not right to criticize the government over suicides due of financial difficulties and inflation because people living in financially stable countries, like the US, also commit suicide. Baitul-Maal Managing Director Zumurrad Khan informed the gathering that the BM has opened centers naming Pakistan Sweet Home in 15 cities for orphaned children. |
