KARACHI:On the instructions of Chief Minister Sindh’s adviser on Zakat Fayyaz Ali Butt, issuance of Zakat cards has started from Sindh banks across the province.
Advisor to CM Sindh Fayaz Ali Butt said that in the first phase, these cards were being given to 46,000 Zakat beneficiaries. To maintain transparency, a biometric system had been introduced. He further said that these Zakat cards were being issued from Sindh Bank branches across the province.
The Sindh government had made every possible effort to make the distribution of Zakat transparent at all levels and it was hoped that after the biometric verification, non-deserving people who receive Zakat would be discouraged.
