The chief minister cited that Punjab government had already approved lucrative salary package for doctors. Therefore, "we need to ensure that our doctors get remunerated at par with the doctors serving under Punjab government," he said.
The Chief Secretary has referred the matter to health department directing to calculate and compare the pay and allowances of doctors in Sindh with Punjab's and other provinces' doctors. He directed them to submit a detailed report along with its financial impact to be discussed at next cabinet meeting.
