Punjab Governor Latif Khosa on Wednesday held Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif responsible for the recent killings due to spurious medicines. He visited the Services Hospital to enquire after the patients who got ill due to the PIC medicines and said the deaths were a great tragedy. He also demanded a fair probe into the incident. He said all the provinces had to agree on the formation of drug regulatory authority. He said the federal government could not take any action without the consent of the provinces for establishing the DRA, adding that it was not wise to involve the presidency in every matter. Later, Khosa went to late Arfa Raheem’s house to condole with her parents and offered fateha. He said the whole world appreciated Arfa’s contribution in IT. He said Arfa was the gift of God to Pakistan and she had made the country proud. Khosa announced the creation of Arfa Chair in Punjab University IT department. He also requested for the establishment of Arfa Raheem Award.
