Will shut down Orange Line train if health, education not prioritised: CJP Nisar
CJP, while hearing a case pertaining to fee hike of private medical colleges. threatened to shut down all development projects including the Orange Line if the government failed to improve health and education sectors.
The owners and chief executive officers of private medical colleges appeared in court and an affidavit with account details was submitted on their behalf.
“No medical college will be registered now and if you have charged extra fees then you will have to return it back.”
“I’ll order the shutdown of private clinics run by government doctors,” he added. “We will gather protestors and go sit outside clinics.”
He further expressed his concern about how children belonging to poor families can’t become doctors as they don’t have enough resources.
