FM hails Saifee Cardiac wing as investment in Pakistan’s future

Mettis Global reported that Finance Minister Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb and Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah took part in the inauguration of the Cardiac Wing at Saifee Hospital in North Nazimabad, Karachi, on August 30, 2026. The new unit features catheterization labs and diagnostic equipment, according to the report.

Speaking at the event, Aurangzeb said investment in health is a form of investment in the country's future and called the wing a step toward timely, world-class cardiac care for Karachi residents. He stressed that a hospital is more than its structures, since the skill and commitment of its clinical and support teams determine what it delivers. He also said private institutions play a significant part in broadening access to quality care and lowering the load on government services.

The minister also praised the Bohra community for its long record of social service and said healthcare should be seen as an investment rather than a social cost, since a healthier population supports productivity, skills and economic resilience. He hoped the wing would grow into a leading centre in Karachi and serve as a template for institutions across the country.
