Zainab Alert App sets in Motion

Ministry of Human Rights collaborated with Pakistan Citizens Portal to launch the Zainab Alert App all across the nation. This is an effort to safeguard children against sexual assaults and societal taboos.

The #app has been named after a six-year old girl called #Zainab, who was #raped and #murdered in #Kasur back in 2018. https://t.co/I2AV2y9Stl
