“I’m hopeful that Zainab Alert, Response and Rapid Recovery Bill will be put to discussion in the NA by Dec 20”

Six-year-old Zainab Ansari was sexually mauled, murdered and thrown on a garbage pile in 2018 while her parents, away on Umrah, prayed for her recovery. She was not the first such victim in Kasur, but her case shook up the conscience of the society and a bill, named after her, has been presented in the parliament.
