KP CM Gandapur ordered mass wedding of 4,000 deserving women
KP CM Sardar Ali Amin Gandapur ordered a mass wedding event for 4,000 deserving women and directed relevant authorities in this regard. He has instructed authorities to complete the organizational steps for the mass wedding event soon.
CM Ali Amin Gandapur announced this during a meeting at the Chief Minister’s House in Peshawar on May 31, 2024. Each woman would receive PKR 200,000 funds under this program.
Hence, he ordered the officials to gather accurate information about deserving women from every district. And to allocate a quota based on each district’s population to ensure the transparency of the decision about the mass wedding program. Meanwhile, the participants of this meeting also supported the idea of establishing a philanthropic contribution fund.
He stated they must have an effective administration mechanism to ensure the selection of only worthy women for this program. He made it quite apparent that the distribution of social security funds would not be subject to political recommendations or individual preferences.
Hence, he pointed out that they must spend every penny of Zakat’s funds on the well-being of needy and poor people. He also urged relevant officials to give priority to orphans, widows, and persons with disabilities.

On the other hand, he also ordered elected public officials to visit “Panahagahs” and other social welfare facilities. He asked them to submit evaluation reports on them.
He said they need to provide those facilities with a sense of trust and ownership. They deserve special attention from the government. Former Prime Minister Imran Khan established “Panahagahs” under the Ehsaas Program for homeless people and laborers in 2021. The purpose of Panahagahs is to provide food and shelter to poor people.
