They said the mission of the Prime Minister Imran Khan and the Punjab Chief Minister Usman Busdar is to make the country polio-free and this requires a collective effort of the nation to achieve this objective.
Meanwhile Sohawa Welfare Society, a local NGO established a free medical camp in the rural area of Sohawa wherein over four hundred patients were examined and provided with free of cost medicines. Ex-Army surgeon Zafar Iqbal Gondal, Gynecologist Sadia with a medical team from DHQ Hospital provided medical services.

He said that the Sohawa Welfare Society had more schemes in the pipeline.
These schemes will provide health and education facilities public and contribute to ending poverty in society. The local people paid glowing tributes to the executive body of the welfare society for providing them health facilities at their doorstep.
