"Hundreds of people fell prey to the heat-wave but the provincial government did not fulfill its responsibilities", Reham lamented.

She said there is no use of having a provincial and federal governments if people have to rely on welfare organizations, adding the people of Karachi were being ignored like those of Thar.

Reham Khan, flanked by PTI leaders Imran Ismail and Faisal Vawda, visited the Jinnah Hospital where she met the patients of heat-wave and enquired about the facilities available in the hospital.

Talking to the media men, Imran Ismail said his party was raising voice against the Sindh government on every platform.
