Lahore: Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz Sharif in her message on the World Day of Social Justice said, 'The foundation of every civilized society is based on social justice and equality. The Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) set the best example of social justice during the Prophetic era. All stakeholders must work together to ensure social justice.' She added, 'Social and societal problems are arising owing to growing gap between the rich and the poor. The worst economic disparity must now be transformed into an unprecedented equality. A policy must be devised to include the deprived classes in the national mainstream.'

CM Punjab said, 'The access of common man to health, education and other social needs depicts true social justice system based on equality. The time has come for development for all and sundry in Punjab.'

She said, 'Minority Card, Himmat Card and other programs are clear manifestation towards attaining the targets of social justice system. Honhaar Scholarship, Kisan Card and other programs are turning the dream of social justice into a reality.'
