ISLAMABAD: President Dr Arif Alvi on Monday urged both provincial and federal governments to take all possible measures to provide healthcare facilities to the people of Balochistan.
The president said this while talking to Minister for Public Health Engineering Balochistan Noor Muhammad Dummar in Islamabad.
Noor Muhammad Dumma briefed him on the ongoing projects and steps being taken to provide health facilities to the people.
In a statement last month, Minister for Planning, Development and Reform Makhdoom Khusro Bakhtiar said that the federal government had adopted a holistic policy towards Balochistan to bring it at par with other areas of the country.

He emphasised that the federal government was considering launching a project to provide electricity, construct dams in collaboration with provincial government to provide clean drinking water to the people of Balochistan as well as enhance financial allocation as part of the Quetta package.
The planning minister stated that the incumbent government was focusing on providing electricity and clean drinking water, and was committed to bring socio-economic development in the province to uplift the people of the area.
To the contrary, Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Ameer Sirajul Haq has earlier said that the incumbent government had not announced a single plan to redress Balochistan’s grievances.
Sirajul Haq said that Balochistan was suffering from prolonged load-shedding, despite the fact that the province provided gas to the whole country.
The JI leader lamented that no long-term project was announced by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government for the province.
