Society for Protection of Rights of the Child (SPARC) held a press conference to recall Government about the Health Levy bill which was passed by the cabinet in 2019 and is yet not implemented, at National Press Club Islamabad on Wednesday.
Health Activists have been pleading FBR and Health Ministry over the imposition of the Health levy bill which was passed last year and still not implemented, who is responsible for the delay? Is public health not a priority matter for our government?
