Rawalpindi Commissioner Noorul Amin Mengal on Wednesday directed the Punjab Building Department to complete the remaining work at the Rawalpindi Institute of Urology Transplantation (RIUT) within 10 days and hand it over it to the Health Department.
He said the completion of RIUT was in the final stages and it would be an Eid gift for the residents of the Rawalpindi and adjoining areas by the Punjab government.
Mengal said that the provincial government was determined to upgrade the existing health facilities in Rawalpindi and use all available resources to bring a visible change in the delivery of health services.
Around 95 per cent of the construction work had been completed at the RIUT, he said and asked the hospital's administration that if there were any hurdles in the purchase of the machinery, inform him, it would be removed immediately.
"The hospital will have a discipline-wise signboard and an emergency ward as per international standards," he added.
He directed the Municipal Corporation administration to remove the encroachment along with the hospital's site so that there would be no difficulty in the movement of patients.
