KP CM expresses determination to eradicate polio in meeting with Gates Foundation

Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Ali Amin Gandapur has expressed his determination to make the province polio-free in a meeting with Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation’s Deputy Director Micheal Galloway.

In a post on X, Gandapur said a two-member delegation of the foundation visited him at the KP CM House to discuss joint initiatives and efforts for the eradication of the poliovirus in the province.

Gandapur said the provincial government will take all possible steps to eradicate polio because it is a matter of our children’s safe future and no compromise will be made on this.

He added that the newly elected provincial government will continue the fight against this deadly disease with a new resolve until the province is polio-free.
