LAHORE
\nIn an effort to improve the condition of government hospitals in the province, the Punjab government, on the special instructions of Chief Minister Syed Mohsin Naqvi, on Thursday released Rs3 billion for their repair and renovation.
\nOver Rs30 million were released for Lahore\u2019s Mayo Hospital; Rs300 million for Faisalabad\u2019s Allied Hospital, Multan\u2019s Nishtar Hospital and Lahore\u2019s Children Hospital each. Similarly, the provincial government released Rs500 million for Lahore\u2019s General Hospital; Rs200 million for Lahore\u2019s Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, and Rs900 million for Lahore\u2019s Jinnah Hospital.
\nThe chief minister visited Liberty police station in Gulberg and reviewed the working of police personnel at the front desk. Expressing his annoyance that no action had been taken on people\u2019s complaints even after the passage of 24 hours, he directed the cops manning the desk to ensure that action was taken on time.
\nCM Naqvi directed the police station staff to not only intimate complainants about registration of their FIRs through SMS but also through e-mail so that they could be spared the agony of visiting the station frequently.
\nOn the occasion, a couple told the chief minister that they had been forced to bribe some policemen deployed at the Qaddafi Stadium. Taking notice of their complaint, he ordered the SP Model Town to take action against the guilty cops.
\nHe also checked the roznamcha (daily register), treasury, investigation wing and Gulberg traffic sector. CM Naqvi also visited the anti-car lifting cell and inquired from the prison inmates about their cases. He ordered that work on improving the condition of the police station should be completed at the earliest. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
