LAHORE:

The central air conditioning plant located at Lahore General Hospital’s indoor building has successfully transitioned to using LPG.

This shift was implemented for effectively addressing the challenges posed by low gas pressure from the main lines.

During a surprise visit to the hospital, Punjab Minister for Education Mansoor Qadir was informed about this positive change, highlighting the efforts of Principal Professor Al-Fareed Zafar in ensuring uninterrupted comfort for patients admitted in the institution. With the successful installation of over 600 air conditioners in the hospital, patients can now experience enhanced healthcare facilities.

Minister Mansoor Qadir’s visit also extended to inquiring about the well-being of a young child named Rizwana, who had experienced domestic abuse in a high profile case earlier this week. He assured Rizwana’s family that the Caretaker CM was closely monitoring her treatment and progress towards a full recovery.

Meanwhile, the caretaker CM expressed strong dissatisfaction after observing poor conditions at Government Indus Hospital Kahna during a surprise visit on Sunday. He criticized the staff for providing false information and noted non-functional air-conditioners, cleanliness problems and blood stains on bed-sheets.

The patients expressed concerns about staff behaviour and delays in medical check-ups. Naqvi contacted the health secretary and expressed disappointment at the hospital’s state.
