Abstract
Primary health care in Pakistan mostly caters for physical aspect with almost complete disregard for mental health. This is in contrast to Declaration of Alma-Ata which reaffirmed the WHO definition of health including mental health as an integral part and urged signatories to incorporate the concept of primary health care in their health systems.
