Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) Vice President and parliamentary party leader in Sindh Assembly Haleem Adil has said that the performance of the National Institute of Cardiovascular Health (NICH) Karachi is marred due to massive corruption, mismanagement and nepotism and the main culprit in this regard is the political appointments in this national institution. Addressing a press conference outside the Sindh Assembly on Wednesday, he said Bilawal had given a challenge to show one other hospital like the NICVD Karachi in whole country. He said we accept our defeat, give a walkover to Bilawal and declare him as a winner. He said really there is no institution like the NICVD in the whole country, which is getting Rs36Crore annually just for salaries. He said a retired employee was appointed as the executive director of NICVD Karachi for a fat salary of Rs65,00000 per month. This retired employee, NadeemQamar, is appointed as the executive director NICVD because he is the real brother of PPP leader Syed NaveedQamar. He said this man has not visited his hospital for last three months. He said this person was also appointed as the director of SICVD. He said these are purely a political appointments, but we accept us as defeated by Bilawal, as no another hospital like the NICVD is really present in whole country. HaleemAdil said when Lakhs of rupees are wasted only on salaries how it would treat the patients. He said what kind of a soldier is this person who has left his hospital abandoned and not visiting it during the coronavirus situation. He said salaries are going to their bank accounts regularly, but these doctors are not discharging duty and treating patients. He said today the NICVD Karachi has to repay loans of Rs16billion. He said huge amounts are being given to private doctors to perform surgeries in the NICVD on contract basis. He asked if the NICVD was really founded by the PPP. He said a trust has been formed in the NICVD, while as per law no trust could be made in any government hospital. He said the secretary of the trust has opened the account of this trust in a private bank. He said same political appointees are leading this trust.
