RAWALPINDI: The Pakistani Army has announced to send Army recruited doctors to government hospitals in Punjab. This move came after the Punjab government had requested Pakistan Army to help with respect to the doctor's strike within the province.

The Pakistan Army has decided to send 150 "Army-dressed" doctors at the disposal of the Punjab government. The decision has been taken to relief the trouble faced by the patient within the province of Punjab due to province wide strike call by young doctors.

The Army doctors would only provide Medical advice within the affected hospitals whilst the administration work would be monitored and undertaken by the Civil Officials only.
