Condemns flippant remarks against PM Imran
Rescue 1122 service has achieved another milestone as Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar formally launched the service in 79 tehsils of the province.
The chief minister during a ceremony held at CM Office on Tuesday, handed over the keys of 22 ambulances to emergency officers of 11 officers in first phase.
Initially, Rescue 1122 service has been started in Sharqpur Sharif, Safdarabad, Narang Mandi, Nowshera Virkan, Nurpur, Quaidabad, Kahror Pakka, Renala Khurd, Pindi Bhattian, Darya Khan and Jalalpur Pirwala tehsils. A tehsil-level rescue station would comprise two ambulances and a 29-member staff.
Speaking on the occasion, Usman Buzdar CM said that new ambulances have been provided for timely delivery of emergency services as new rescue stations have been built in 79 tehsils and towns.
Emergency services would be started in these tehsils by June, he added.
He said, to further streamline the emergency services, a service structure has also been devised for rescuers to get promotions.
Punjab will be the first province to introduce a rescue air ambulance service and this would give emergency medical assistance a new identity as rescue air ambulance service would extend the scope to remote areas.
Every life is precious and timely treatment is the right of every person, the CM underscored.
Provincial Ministers Raja Basharat, Mian Khalid Mahmood, MNAs Sanaullah Mastikhel and Shaukat Bhatti, SACM Hasaan Khawar, secretary information, DG Rescue 1122 and others were also present on the occasion.
Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar has said the anti-polio vaccination campaign in the province would continue till January 28.
In a statement issued here on Tuesday, he said a strong contingent of 60,000 anti-polio workers were vaccinating the children in Lahore, Faisalabad, Rawalpindi, Multan, Muzaffargarh, Rahim Yar Khan, DG Khan, Rajanpur and Mianwali districts.
The chief minister asked the parents to vaccinate their children against polio to ensure a safe future for their children.
It is sanguine that no polio case has been reported during the last 14 months, he added.
Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has condemned Maryam Aurangzeb’s flippant remarks against PM Imran Khan. In a statement, the CM regretted that the coarseness is the favorite political modus operandi of PMLN as they have been involved in using insulting words against former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto too. Maryam Aurangzeb has hurt every Pakistani and proved that PMLN is devoid of moral, political and democratic norms, he asserted.
They should apologize to the nation for nasty words; he said and emphasized that no dignified person could choose such expression.
The PML-N’s spell of ranting is equal to the pot calling the kettle black as PM Imran Khan is the leader of millions of Pakistanis and people love their prime minister from the core of their hearts, the CM concluded.
