KARACHI, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 12th Aug, 2017 ) : Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi Saturday visited Marie Adelaide Leprosy Centre here where he spoke high for the services of late Dr Ruth Pfau for dedicating her life to fight leprosy in Pakistan.
Dr Ruth Pfau, who founded Marie Adelaide Leprosy Centre, breathed her last on Friday and the prime minister had announced a state funeral for her in recognition of her services to the humanity.
"Dr Ruth Pfau will always be remembered for her remarkable services to humanity for over six decades," he remarked. He said the country could never repay her for her commitment and devotion to some of the most disadvantaged in the society purely selflessly.
