that very soon Pakistan will become one of the polio-free countries of
the world.
Further, he said, “It’s a matter of concern as a Polio case has been
discovered in Sindh during this month so parents should give polio drops
to their children.”

fulfill her dream, the political commitment and intentions of the
People’s Party is strong”, he added.

all work for polio-free Pakistan together and protect our children from
this disease through regular vaccination”, she said. DNA
