Greets people over robotic surgery in PKLI

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday said politics in the country has been reduced to “meaningless rhetoric” and termed service delivery as the main criterion to compete for public office.

The premier made the remarks on Twitter and maintained that “our politics suffers from a structural flaw”, adding that it has been “reduced to a shorthand for grandstanding and meaningless rhetoric.”

In a tweet, Shehbaz further said that “service delivery alone should govern competition for public office. Politics is an arena where people compete to serve fellow citizens.”

He wrote on his twitter handle: “It has, unfortunately, been reduced to a shorthand for grandstanding & meaningless rhetoric. To me, service delivery alone should govern competition for public office. Politics is an arena where people compete to serve fellow citizens.”

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister congratulated the people as well as the doctors on the introduction of robotic surgery in the Pakistan Kidney and Liver Institute.

“Alhamdulillah, the efforts for liver and kidney treatment in Pakistan are coming to fruition,” the prime minister remarked.

He said the purpose of establishing PKLI was to provide a modern facility for the treatment of kidney and liver disease within the country.

At the PKLI, a world-class liver and kidney treatment facility has been made available in the country. PKLI will become the John Hopkins of Pakistan, he added.

The prime minister said that the PKLI could have progressed more if former chief justice Saqib Nisar had not intervened just to get a salary raise for his brother.

He hoped that the PKLI would play its role in reducing the mortality ratio and prevention of kidney and liver disease which was on surge in the country. The current mortality ratio of kidney disease stands at 2.77 which needed to be addressed through effective measures.
