It is pertinent to add here that Ali was treated at a Sindh government facility on special instructions of PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari after reports of his ailment and inability to afford treatment were circulated on social media.
Commenting on this Dr Awan said that she was sorry to learn that the singer had to go outside the province for his treatment while the Punjab government was distributing health cards across the province.
