A neglected district

The miserable condition of roads in the district is proving to be dangerous for the residents

AWARAN: Awaran is a district in Balochistan which is deprived of basic necessaries of life. The district is facing lots of problems. For instance, the miserable condition of roads in the district is proving to be dangerous for the residents. Awaran is a small district which does not have a hospital, and as a result the locals have to travel to Turbat but due to the poor road condition, the journey takes longer than it should and sometimes appears to be critical for patients traveling even for a simple check-up.

The provincial government should look into the matter and provide a medical centre in the district while also fixing the poor road condition simultaneously.
