Health care is one of the basic facilities that every citizen of a country holds a right for. However, Pakistan is one country where people are deprived of a large number of fundamental rights. This continues to be a nuisance for citizens as well as a dilemma that we continue to deal with our society.

Apart from basic health care, many hospitals run public hospitals are running in shambolic conditions. We have a handful number of public hospitals that offer free treatment in Pakistan. Recently, many public hospitals were exposed for having run-off-the-mill conditions or more like being a breeding ground for all kinds of diseases.

Just lately, somebody shared a number of pictures of a renowned hospital in Karachi where citizens actively visit to seek treatment. The pictures show this hospital in a deplorable condition and it further instigates that it cannot be treated as a place where people seek medical care. Have a look yourself:

The message on the left serves so much irony here.

How can this place be qualified as a hospital?

Authorities seem to have no concern, whatsoever for the horrific state

These pictures speak of a grave prospect

Unfortunately, there are many hospitals in Pakistan having a deteriorating condition. The people in charge continue to complain that they have not been given enough funds to manage some progress of such places. However, a basic budget is always alotted to public hospitals and they are liable to cover up in the share provided to them.
