Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Poverty Alleviation and Social Protection, Dr Sania Nishtar said on Saturday that One Window Ehsaas policy will ensure delivery of services to marginalized segments of society through a single window and a one-stop shop.

“The overarching Ehsaas strategy stipulates the creation of one-window Ehsaas policy to enable delivery of multiple Ehsaas programmes through a single window.
