Police to provide safety to polio teams
LAHORE: The Punjab government has put the district administration and police on high alert to provide security to polio teams in the province.

Health Punjab Secretary Capt (retd) Arif Nadeem has directed the DCOs of those districts where polio vaccination is being administered to ensure safety of officials of the campaign.

He directed the commissioners and DCOs to depute armed police officials with vaccination teams in sensitive areas of Rawalpindi, DG Khan, Attock, Mianwali and Rajanpur districts so that they could perform their duties peacefully.
