Speaking on the occasion Dr Darakhshan Andrabi said that NGO’s shoulder a huge part of the responsibility to serve people and take up impressive social welfare activities in our country.
“Sharing the social responsibilities, non profit private sector plays a big role in reaching out to the people in need and helping them out financially and in kind so that they are also able to meet their basic needs”, said Dr Andrabi.
She said that while the government has taken many steps and measures to help marginalized people of the society, the individual and collective help from civilians also plays a good role in helping the people in need. Dr Andrabi thanked Rukhsana and her foundation for her kind initiative.
