Senior Punjab Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb held a press conference on Wednesday, informing the public that Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz’s health had deteriorated on Monday night.
Aurangzeb shared that Nawaz, who had undergone thyroid surgery last year, has been experiencing complications related to her previous surgery.
"Maryam Nawaz has been working for eight months. She was admitted to the hospital due to deterioration of her health," Aurangzeb explained.
The minister said that due to her health condition, Maryam Nawaz will be travelling to Geneva later tonight for immediate treatment under the care of her surgeon, who is based in the Swiss city. Aurangzeb claimed that the CM's doctor had called her in urgently and recommended that she seek medical attention immediately.
Maryam Nawaz is expected to return to Pakistan by November 12.
Despite her health challenges, the senior minister assured the public that Maryam Nawaz would continue her work remotely while in Geneva. "She will still be holding meetings and staying updated on key matters. Even late at night, she has been receiving updates from the DC and IG regarding the situation in Punjab," said Aurangzeb.
