Minister provides hope to jobless doctors

Abro says strict action will be taken against absent doctors

QUETTA: Balochistan Minister for Health Abdul Majid Abro on Tuesday said steps were being taken to provide medical and healthcare facilities to the masses of the province.

“Recruitment on vacant posts in the health department will be done soon on merit,” he told APP.



The minister warned that the health department would take strict action against those doctors who are registered with government hospitals but practice only at their private clinics to make money.

Balochistan Chief Minister Abdul Quddus Bizenjo is taking concrete measures for resolution of public issues and elimination of unemployment from the province, he added.

The minister said that the purpose of setting up an open court is to address people's grievances. Answering a question regarding the MBBS entry test case of Bolan Medical Complex, the minister said since the matter was sub-judice the government would accept the court's verdict.
