In pursuance of Supreme Court orders, Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif on Thursday issued directives to hire the services of eunuchs in connection with recovery of outstanding loans.
The Punjab chief minister directed the managing director of Punjab Small Industries to hire services of five eunuchs from each district of the province who would accompany police of the respective district during recovery campaign of the loans.
The eunuchs would be given commission against recovery of loans and would be provided loans on easy terms to run their business.
Confirming the reports of issuance of these directives from the chief minister, Punjab Small Industries Deputy Director Ghulam Hussain Nizami said he had held a meeting with Shahbaz Abbas alias Shani, president of the Association of Eunuchs for South Punjab, and briefed him in this regard.
Shani said he appreciated the directives of the Supreme Court and Shahbaz Sharif, adding that he would discharge this obligation in a befitting manner.
