The Punjab government had opened the first transgender public school in the provincial capital in its bid to empower more trans-persons in society. To educate and teach skills to trans-persons, the government had also set up three transgender schools in the major cities of the province including Multan, Bahawalpur, and DG Khan. These institutes provide free education from primary to higher secondary classes while imparting skills training that includes stitching, cooking, other small empowering skills and make-up.
