Following the imposition of Governor's Rule, the new provincial government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa continues to take practical steps to improve the healthcare sector.

Under the leadership of Adviser on Health, Retired Lieutenant General Nigar Johar, the government set a target of ensuring 90 percent availability of contract doctors in remote areas and making 250 basic emergency obstetric and newborn care centers operational round the clock.

In addition, 114 Rural Health Centres across the province will be shifted to solar power, while scholarships will be awarded to 100 nursing students.
