However, Speaker Elahi restrained the treasury benches from point scoring on former premier’s health. He drew the attention of the house asking the government should know the reasons under which Nawaz Sharif was being denied a visit to the hospital. Punjab Health Minister Dr Yasmeen Rashid said Nawaz Sharif was suffering from a few diseases as she has been examining the reports on a daily basis. She revealed that Nawaz Sharif refused to go through a test of angiography. The Punjab government has no objection if Nawaz Sharif wants the treatment from his family physician.
