LAHORE: All beauty parlours functioning in the province will be registered and given the status of an industry, said Punjab Minister for Primary and Secondary Healthcare Khawaja Imran Nazir.  He was addressing the inaugural ceremony of the Women Health and Beauty Festival 2017 organised by the Professional Wing of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz at a local hotel on Tuesday. “Women working in these beauty parlours will be trained to control blood-borne diseases,” he said, adding that infected instruments spread such ailments.

He said women working at beauty parlours were like industrial workers, who were supporting their families and contributing to the economy. He stated the profession would be regularised. The minister added the government would fully support promotion of beauty parlours and provide guidance for the prevention of diseases.
