LAHORE:

The Punjab Police has launched audio therapy services under the “Hamaray Phool” project, providing modern hearing aids to hearing-impaired children of police employees.

Punjab Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dr Usman Anwar gave modern hearing aids to children of police employees, Traffic Police, Dolphin Force of Lahore and Narowal, and other districts, blessing them with love, compassion, and affection. He announced that Rs1.85 million per child has been approved for the purchase of cochlear implants for the treatment of hearing-impaired children.

The IGP expressed his happiness that the special children of police employees are now able to hear and will become useful citizens of society. He said that when the “Hamaray Phool” project was started, only four children were registered, but the number has now increased to 2,100. He urged any employee who has not yet registered their special child to call 1787 to ensure they receive instant medical support for treatment.
