Islamabad, July 04, 2021 (PPI-OT):President Dr Arif Alvi has rejected a representation of Faisalabad Electric Supply Company against its employee, who had been asking for a monthly welfare grant for his mentally-disabled son. The President termed it a “very irresponsible attitude” on part of the FESCO for delaying the case of the complainant who had been seeking due rights for his disabled child. Dr Arif Alvi in his order said the society; especially the government agencies must show compassion for deprived segments of society. Riaz Hussain, a retired employee of FESCO had applied a number of times to his department for the monthly welfare grant in respect of his mentally-disabled son, which was admissible to him; however, no relief was extended to him.
