A significant allocation of Rs1.5 billion was greenlit to equip SUIT Sukkur with a state-of-the-art MRI system, empowering medical professionals to deliver advanced diagnostic services to the local community.

This investment underscores the government’s commitment to improving healthcare access and quality in underserved regions. Recognizing the vital role of security forces in maintaining peace and order, the Cabinet approved an extension of Pakistan Rangers’ deployment in Karachi Division.

This strategic move, backed by the Anti-Terrorism ACT 1997, reinforces the government’s unwavering commitment to safeguarding public safety and combating crime. Amidst the ongoing pandemic challenges, the Cabinet demonstrated compassion by approving the release of Rs. 10.189 billion for retired civil servants. This long-awaited pension disbursement will provide much-needed financial relief to thousands of retirees, ensuring their well-deserved dues are met without further delay. Funds were earmarked for critical flood protection infrastructure in vulnerable areas, bolstering resilience against natural disasters and safeguarding communities.

The Cabinet addressed infrastructure needs with the approval of remaining project costs for the M9-N5 Link Road, facilitating smoother transportation networks.
