PESHAWAR: The representatives of political parties and members of civil society on Friday asked the government to approve policy on transgender protection. The demand was made at a conference, which was organised jointly by Blue Veins, TransAction and Pakhtunkhwa Civil Society Network at the Peshawar Press Club.
