Peshawar December 14, 2020 PESHAWAR: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)’s government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is under pressure to appoint a full-time health minister following the recent deaths at the Khyber Teaching Hospital (KTH) here due to oxygen shortage as demand is increasingly being made for resignation of Taimur Saleem Jhagra. Jhagra was the minister for finance when he was given the additional charge of the health portfolio after the sacking of Shahram Khan Tarakai, the minister of health, along with Mohammad Atif Khan and Shakil Ahmad from the cabinet in January 2020 on disciplinary grounds. Even after the passage of about 11 months, the provincial government has been unable to decide who should be the new health minister. Jhagra has continued to manage the two portfolios, both full-time jobs with heavy workload. He seems to have taken a liking for running the health portfolio and was happy to retain the portfolio along with his original charge as finance minister. Or the government is unable to find a suitable choice for managing the health ministry.
