“I have been advocating for the eradication of polio for the past 10 years through inauguration and active monitoring of polio campaigns. I have actively raised my voice in the provincial assembly sessions. I was able to table the resolution on Polio Support in the BalochistanLegislature which has contributed towards smoother delivery of polio eradication activities. My goal is to eradicate polio from my province as well as boosting the routine programme of immunization in order to sustain the status of polio-free Balochistan. We can eradicate polio from Pakistan if there is a strong commitment by the government and partners across all provinces.”
