While visiting KFC – I. I. Chundrigar during lunch hour they were greeted by CEO KFC Pakistan, Raza Pirbhai, who apprised them of the organisation’s efforts to boost inclusion under its Mitao Bhook platform.

Appreciating their efforts, the President interacted with the deaf employees, placed an order using sign language and purchased the meal himself.
