The Dhee Rani Program is designed to support underprivileged parents in fulfilling their social and religious obligation of marriage for their daughters with dignity. In Islam, Nikah (marriage) is a sacred social contract, forming the foundation of a stable and happy family life. However, due to the current economic situation and financial constraints, many disadvantaged families struggle to arrange their daughters’ weddings.
This Government-Sponsored Collective Marriage Program aims to provide financial assistance while also fostering hope, stability, and a sense of government ownership in society.
