CM Maryam underwent 'major surgery' at Lahore hospital: Punjab minister

Punjab Senior Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb said on Thursday that Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz underwent ‘major surgery’ at the Sharif Medical City Hospital in Lahore.

In a post on the social media platform X, Aurangzeb said: “Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz underwent major surgery at Sharif Medical City Hospital, after which she has been shifted home.”

She added that despite being in the hospital, the chief minister monitored security, cleanliness and other administrative matters pertaining to the province on the first day of Eid.

Responding to Aurangzeb’s post, Information Technology Minister Shaza Fatima Khwaja prayed for Maryam’s health, well-being and long life.
