If even a single person’s life is saved by this ministry of mine, it will be enough for my forgiveness.
There are 13 cardiac centers in Punjab. Until today, our cardiology hospitals were treating in the style of 1980s. Primary angioplasty facility in Punjab was available only to the elite.
Caretaker Chief Minister Punjab Mohsin Naqvi has provided 24/7 facility of primary angioplasty to patients in all cardiology hospitals.
Alhamdulillah, more than 600 patients have undergone primary angioplasty in cardiology hospitals of Punjab during a week. We are providing primary angioplasty facility to patients in Lahore’s Jinnah Hospital and Punjab Institute of Cardiology.
