Lack of healthcare facilities 

Letter February 25, 2019
Balochistan chief minister and departments concerned should look into the issue

KECH: There is no doctor in Balgater town of Balochistan.  Residents of the town and those living in its vicinity face a number of health issues but have no medical facilities. There are few medical shops and there is not even one doctor at the only hospital in the town.

These people do not have the means to travel to cities to seek medical care and hence are left to suffer. The town is in a dire need of a good hospital and pharmacies.

The provincial chief minister and the departments concerned should look into the issue and work towards providing medical facilities to the people of the town.
