Although Im a PPP voter the party's governance is the worst of all parties. Blunders, mismanagement, corruption and whatever bad things u can imagine,you can easily find in PPPP's government in Sindh. The party is cashing the name of its pioneers. How pathetic it is.

These deaths are preventable! Bilawal Zardari is quick to condemn other parties and our federal government - what is he doing about matters that are under his control?

are they running the hospital or cemetery. They are supposed to be saving the lives. NOT KILLING THEM.... The very first requirement in a hospital is that it should do the sick no harm.
