Memon is the president of a welfare organisation for transgenders in Dadu. He has become a recovery inspector with the municipal administration and was given his papers in a ceremony chaired by administrator Imdad Ali Dahoch. Memon said that a campaign against corruption would be launched and their recoveries would be doubled.
