Marriyum Demands Parliamentary Probe Of Medicine Import Scandal, Imran’s Destruction of Public Healthcare
PMLN Secretary lnformation Marriyum Aurangzeb says Imran Khan is responsible for the destruction of the country’s healthcare system and the devastation caused to people because of this massive failure of his government.
In a statement Marriyum demanded the formation of a parliamentary committee to investigate the massive Indian medicine import scandal so that a transparent inquiry to fix responsibility for this billions worth of corruption.
She said Imran, who is also the Federal Health Minister, should answer to the nation for his corrupt actions. Like all other institutions, the PTI regime and its ring leader Imran has totally devastated the public health of the country.
Marriyum said Pakistan Medical and Dental Association is still not functional despite stringent court orders which is the most blatant contempt of court. The largest hospital in Islamabad is running on makeshift arrangements while the inept Imran has not even been able to appoint a Secretary Health.
The former Information Minister said National Institute for Rehabilitation and Medicine, Drug Regulatory Authority are both running without a permanent head and there still is no Director General Health.
She pointed out that PTI shut down 20 healthcare projects started by PMLN just to satisfy his vengeance and prejudice. Yet he shamelessly rebranded Nawaz Sharif’s Sehat Card as Insaf Sehat Card to claim credit.
Yet, she said, even today, 85 percent of CoVid tests have been done by above three medical facilities established by Shehbaz Sharif. PMLN made the hepatitis program Laboratory, the Forensic Science Agency and Punjab Kidney and Liver Institute during its last tenure, she added.
Marriyum said Visionary leaders are measured by their legacy, medical facilities commisioned and inaugurated. Even today Shahbaz Sharif in the front lines of combating COVID-19 at all fronts while Imran and his government has nothing but confusion and devastation for the people of Pakistan.
