He asked the public to rely on verified reports instead of social media propaganda, which he said caused unnecessary anxiety.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"891\" data-end=\"1208\">Naqvi provided an update on Khan\u2019s treatment, noting that the former premier had undergone an eye injection at a hospital under strict medical precautions. \u201cThis was a routine procedure carried out as a precaution to prevent complications,\u201d he said, stressing that all prisoners are entitled to proper medical care.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1210\" data-end=\"1521\">The minister added that opposition leaders from the National Assembly and Senate visited the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, met the doctors for 90 minutes, and confirmed the care was \u201cexcellent.\u201d Doctors also consulted Khan\u2019s personal physicians by phone for 45 minutes, answering detailed questions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1523\" data-end=\"1759\">Naqvi criticised delays in the medical check-up, pointing to opposition interference and family vetoes, particularly from Khan\u2019s sister, Aleema Khan.
