‘Issue ration cards for sex workers’

In a statement issued on Sunday, Sabha president Khairati Lal Bhola appealed to the State Food and Civil Supplies Minister Haroon Yusuf to depute a mobile van to the area to get the credentials of the sex workers examined so that they could be issued ration cards.
