He said that Sindh Assembly approved a law regarding thalassemia in 2013 which should be implemented in letter and sprit. The pre-marriage thalassemia test for the couple can also save next generation from this deadly ailment.
He said this after inaugurating the red bus on the visit of Afzaal Memorial Thalassemia Foundation (AMTF). Founder and CEO Afzaal Memorial Thalassemia Foundation (AMTF) Dr Asim Qudvai was also present on this occasion. The Metropolitan Commissioner inspected the facilities in the AMTF.
