According to the recent news, the Pakistan Bait-ul-Mal launched a mobile app named Panahgah for the citizens. Through this app, citizens will be able to locate the nearest shelter homes under the Ehsaas Program. However, National Information Technology Board (NITB) designed, managed and developed this mobile app.
