The provincial minister for literacy Raja Rashid Hafeez, while presiding over a departmental meeting, said that the Punjab government has provided all necessary resources to achieve 100 per cent literacy rate in the province, a spokesperson shared on Friday.
In addition to this, transgender individuals have also been provided facilities for education for the first time as part of the adult literacy programme, the official added.
“Purposeful efforts to increase literacy rates are being made with education as well as remedial training being imparted to citizens serving sentences for various crimes in prisons,” he mentioned.
The provincial minister said that the government is committed to play a practical role in the process of national reconstruction by giving the first-ever literacy policy.
Addressing the officers in the meeting, he further stated that the literacy department has been made fully functional while reviewing the progress on adult education facilities and other projects in informal schools, jails and social welfare centres in different cities.
