IHC has given the government two weeks to restore the council. The Ministry of National Health Services secretary attended the hearing conducted by a single-member bench of IHC comprising Justice Mohsin Akhtar Kayani on the contempt petition filed by the PMDC employees.
During the proceeding, the secretary informed the court that they had written a letter to the ministry of law and justice for completing the restoration action and assured the court that its orders would be executed within a week. Meanwhile, the court remarked that the federal health secretary was to be held responsible for the non-implementation on law and set a two-week deadline to the government for restoring the dissolved body.
