Haji Hanif Tayyab National Islamic Advisory Group member and Chairman of the Rotary Ulama Committee

Pakistan stands today on the brink of ending the scourge of polio — and Sehat Muhafiz are leading the charge.

On the World Polio Day, The National Islamic Advisory Group reiterates its full endorsement of the oral polio vaccine and national Polio Eradication Programme.

We call on all parents to vaccinate their children against this debilitating but preventable disease. We call upon all learned religious leaders to continue enlightening our communities about the rights of children to the best start in life and protection against polio and all other childhood diseases.
