DERA GHAZI KHAN, Feb 2: A schoolteacher has sought the help of philanthropists to get his four-month-old son treated who has been suffering from cardiac disorder since his birth. His treatment is possible only in foreign hospitals.

The disorder in the heart of Ghias was diagnosed at the Multan Institute of Cardiology. The Narayana Hurdayalaya Hospital in Bangalore, India, has estimated 200,000 Indian rupees for the surgery of Ghias.

Ameen Buzdar, the father of the ailing infant, has appealed to philanthropists, non-government organisations and the government to help him financially.
