The initiative has started off with a huge bang. Images of the newly constructed hospitals were shared by PTI’s Twitter handle and the infrastructure has massively improved.

Earlier in February, PTI Chairman Imran Khan announced the launch of Women Health Care Hospital with the capacity of 500 beds in Peshawar to decrease the ratio of maternity health care in the province.
