The minister said, “The SOPs are fully implemented at THQ Forte Manro. As per the agreement in 2018, the Pakistan Air Force is providing the services very well. All patients visiting Forte Manro Hospital are receiving better quality treatment services. Provision of healthcare facilities at the doorstep of people is our foremost priority. According to Vision of Prime Minister Imran Khan, we are striving to ensure best possible services for common man. I appeal parents to get their children vaccinated against polio. Two drops of vaccine can save children from the disability of lifetime.”

App adds: Dr Yasmin Rashid Tuesday said that brutalities and barbarity in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJ&K) had failed to stop the freedom struggle in Kashmir.
