    I am closely connected with Dr. Habib Rehman and his family and more particularly the two sons, Ajmal and Ashfaq. It is good to see that Unity Health Complex has made rapid strides towards progress during the last decade. Their emergency unit is indeed most hygienic, clean and fitted with the latest equipment to meet the emergent needs of the patients. During the course of my several talks with Habeeb, Ajmal and Ashfaq I have come to realize that all of them and the dedicated team of doctors/surgeons strive the provide the best possible care to patients irrespective of caste and creed.

    It is good to see The Commissioner of Police Mr. Seemanth Singh making time to attend the World Heart Day programme at Unity Health Complex. It is a clear indication that Police Officers do not merely enforce LAW AND ORDER but participate in meetings like these indicating that they PEOPLES' MEN.

    My Good Wishes are with Habeeb, Ajmal, Ashfaq and the team of people who continuously try to render best possible service to The Community.

    Now a days this type of awareness programmes and preventive measures to reduce cardiovascular diseases are required. One can prevent major cardiovascular risks like heart attack and strokes by choosing healthy diet, being physically active and NOT SMOKING.
