Nadia Hussain, Sarwat Gillani, and Momal Sheikh were also present at the event to motivate the students and, further, encourage them to adopt healthy habits.

Shahzeb Mehmood, CEO RB Pakistan, on the prestigious occasion stated;

Every year Pakistan loses about 53,000 children to diarrhoea- a disease that is preventable through the simple act of hand washing. With over 1600 students taking part in the hand washing relay, we hope to take this message across Pakistan and instill the habit of washing hands among children. Dettol is committed to saving these lives and with the support of the Government, NGOs, Schools and each and every citizen of Pakistan; we can be successful in this endeavor”.
