Turbat has one teaching hospital but nonavailability of a burn center. Several incidents of gas cylinder occur in Turbat and a large number of the victims from these incidents lose their lives. We always remember the deadly incidents of 2018 occured in Shapuk and Near Park Hotel Turbat respectively where several people including man, women and children were burnt to death. Burn center has been a genuine demand of the people of Turbat as they have always suffered much due to lack of burn center. If government can’t afford to establish a burn center separately, at least it can establish a burn unit within the DHQ hospital Turbat for timely treatment of victims of gas cylinders or other fire incidents to save their lives. Therefore, I request the government of Balochistan specifically the health minister of Balochistan Syed Ehsan Shah who also belongs to Turbat to take serious measures in this regard on immediate basis.
