KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah has constituted a two-member Judicial Commission to probe the situation in Tharparkar district.
A statement here on Sunday said that the Chief Minister taking serious view of the situation in Tharparkar said that his government has taken practical measures for poverty alleviation in Tharparkar.
“I have improved health service, upgraded BHUs dispensaries and taluka hospitals by providing them equipment and have doubled the budget of medicines. Despite these steps the media reports say that infant deaths are on the rise which is disturbing for me,” he said.
Qaim Ali Shah directed Chief Secretary, Siddique Memon to constitute a Judicial Commission under Justice (retd) Ghulam Sarwar Korai and retired District and Sessions Judge Arjun Ram as member to probe the overall situation in Tharparkar.
The commission would probe into the reported deaths of children, impact of government measures adopted so far and then make recommendations as to what more can be done. It will also point out any shortfalls, if any, in the implementation of government policy within 15 days.
The commission would start its work from Monday.
