VIP movement: Patients denied entry at Mardan hospital due to CM Khattak’s arrival

Scores of patients were stuck in the hospital and could not move due to VVIP movement. Similarly a large number of patients and visitors arriving at the facility were denied entry due to CM’s arrival.

The PTI-led provincial government of Khyber Pakhtonkhwa had recently issued an order, barring road blockades during VIP movements.

The order said “the government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is pleased to abandon undue and extra- protocol, unnecessary security routing, traffic restrictions and blocking of public roads during visits of VVIPs and VIPs throughout Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province with immediate effect and in the best public interest, and to avoid any inconvenience to the general public.”

The chief minister KP had arrived today at Mardan Medical Complex to visit injured of the blast.
