LAHORE: PTI Punjab chief organiser Aliya Hamza Malik has expressed solidarity with employees of the health department who are protesting against the privatisation of over 1,000 health units in the province.
In a tweet on Saturday, Ms Malik stated, “The TikToker chief minister was taking revenge for her being dropped out of medical college from the health department employees”.
She said the health department employees were protesting against the privatisation of health units.
She said the incumbent rulers were just illiterate and busy making educated and skilled people unemployed.
The PTI leader said joblessness was at its peak and the poor were not able to get medicines from hospitals. She said some 1.8 million people had left the country to look for some jobs while 10m people had gone below the poverty line.
She claimed that the PTI was standing with the suppressed people of Pakistan.
