Nijaat

Nijaat (Urdu: نجات, English: Liberation) is an 18-episode 1993 Pakistani television drama serial produced by PTV.

It emphasizes family planning, ending child labor and initiating community health reforms.

[4] This drama is based on the interwinding stories of three families in a village in Sindh, Pakistan: Zareena, a health worker, and her family; Sajida and Huzoor Bakhsh, who have so many children that Sajida has very poor health; and Ali Asad, an Assistant Commissioner and his wife Tania.

The support for this study was provided by International Development Research Center (IDRC), Canada.

[8] The usefulness of findings from qualitative evaluations of 'Nijaat' (and Alang-Alang in Indonesia) has led to further collaborations between JHU/PCS and filmmakers.
