Similarly, 25pc concession was given for Covid-19 test, 7.5 per cent for medicines while 15 per cent was specified for purchasing surgical equipment.
SSP headquarters Naveed Atif made agreements with GSR Lab and Bio-Diagnostic Centre, following IGP Islamabad Qazi Jameel-ur-Rehman directions to boost the morale of the force.
Policemen were required to prove their identities before receiving discounts at any lab to avoid fraud, the spokesman added.
