Punjab government is destroying public health sector by giving hospital to private sector: Ch Pervaiz Elahi

Photo CPE 01 {July12-15}Lahore: A Large number of office-bearers and ticket holders of Pakistan Sunni Tehrik Gujranwala including the President announced to join Pakistan Muslim League (PML) when they called on PML senior central leader and former Deputy Prime Minister Ch Pervaiz Elahi at his residence here today.

They were headed by Tehrik District President Sardar Anjum Dogar while Ch Mohammad Nasir advocate also accompanied them.

In his address on the occasion Ch Pervaiz Elahi said that during our tenure free treatment facilities were being provided in the govt hospitals and Rescue 1122 was also established and being run efficiently for every one without any discrimination but N-League Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif instead of providing better facilities than us is begging for donations for running 1122 and now also giving advertisements to put govt. hospitals on contract which is ample proof of failure and inefficiency of these show-off rulers who goes on praising himself in unending manner. He said canteens of the govt hospitals are given on contracts but what sort of govt this is which is giving entire hospitals on contract and indulging in drum beating on this unconstitutional step unmindful of the bitter fact that in this manner they are playing with the lives of the people in this manner.

Ch Pervaiz Elahi pointedly stated that we had increased budget of Health Department by as much as 134 per cent during our tenure, for the first time in the history of Pakistan free medicines were provided to the patients in the govt hospitals while our revolutionary service 1122 has so far saved lakhs of lives. He said we had also established most modern cardiology hospitals in Multan, Faisalabad and Wazirabad, new emergency blocks and operation theatres were constructed big hospitals but Shahbaz Sharif govt performance is that some of our mega projects in health sector were closed down entirely and funds stopped of many including Fatima Jinnah Institute of Dental Sciences, Punjab Institute of Neuro Surgery, Surgical Tower Mayo Hospital, Burn Centre Jinnah Centre among others, Shahbaz Sharif is not allowing for the last seven years our constructed Wazirabad Cardiology Hospital for districts of Gujranwala Division to be functional due to which at least four thousand heart patients have already expired.

Sardar Anjum Dogar and other leaders said that due to leadership qualities of Ch Shujat Hussain and after comparing the tenure of Ch Parvez Elahi with the prevailing circumstances, they are joining PML.

Delegation included Provincial Assembly ticket holders Muzaffar Hameed Karimi advocate, Muhammad Ikram Babar and Nasim Haider Kahloan besides Mohammad Asif, Mohammad Faeeq Qadri, Muhammad Iqbal Khokhar, Mohammad Yasir, Muhammad Waqas, Mian Mohammad Yasin, Mohammad Yousuf, Aftab Ahmad, Malik Akbar Ali among others.
