Peshawar High Court (PHC) Wednesday ordered the Lady Reading Hospital (LRH) to produce all the record of the hospital before the court.
Hearing a case about the largest hospital of the province, Justice Shakil Ahmad remarked that most of the senior professors have left their jobs in the hospital and juniors have been made head of the departments whose attitude with seniors is not good. He added that the largest hospital of the province had been ruined.
The PHC bench on Wednesday heard petition filed by Professor Dr Adnan Gul in which he requested the court to take notice of his promotion which was still pending despite the court decision in his favour. He said that his promotion was denied despite the court’s orders and it was contempt of court.
The lawyer of Dr Riaz Anwar, Dr Musa Kaleem and Dr Mehfooz, Habib Anwar Advocate informed the court that PHC had ordered the submission of report about the number of professors who have been removed from their posts or who left job at LRH.
