TIMERGARA: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf district councillor Saira Shamsul Qamar on Friday demanded of the federal government and Pakistan Bureau of Statistics to allocate a separate column for special persons in the census form so as to determine their exact number in the country.

Talking to media persons here, she regretted that the census form had no specific description for the physically challenged persons. She said that the persons with disability (PWDs) would move the court if the government failed to specify separate column for them.

Ms Qamar, who herself is a special person, said that if the government was sincere with the disabled persons it should include a separate column for them in the census form.
