LAHORE: Minister for Population Welfare Hashim Dogar has said massive increase in population is a major issue, adding the government is focusing on resolving issues.
The minister was addressing an introductory meeting of a project mutually launched by Departments of Health and Population Welfare for public sector health and family planning facilities.
The minister said decades had been wasted feeling ashamed of talking about family planning and reproductive health. Now, it is time to address this issue individually and collectively. Let us talk about contraception and maternal matters, he added. The main objectives of family planning programme include the integration of family planning services into routine health services. The project will train healthcare providers to deliver effective family planning services including screening, client-centred counselling and referrals and ensure provision of quality postpartum and post-abortion services by strengthening the skills and knowledge of healthcare providers.
