islamabad: A province-wide push to eradicate polio in Sindh gained momentum on Tuesday, with the district administrations taking the lead to ensure the success of the ongoing Sub-National Immunisation Days campaign.

As of day 2, significant coverage has been achieved across several districts, with initial reports showing the campaign is meeting daily targets, though further efforts are being intensified in challenging areas.
In accordance with the directives of Sindh Chief Secretary Syed Asif Hyder Shah, divisional commissioners and deputy commissioners, along with their assistant commissioners and district health officers, were fully mobilised, emphasising the urgency of the campaign.
Their hands-on involvement highlights the government’s commitment to reaching every child, and addressing growing challenges.
