    Burki's military portrait

    Wajid was commissioned into the Indian Medical Service of the British Indian Army in 1926, ranking as top officer among the only four officers selected from a field of over sixty foreign qualified candidates.[42]

    During

    After the

    independence of Pakistan in 1947, Burki and S.M.A. Faruki were the two most senior medical officers. They were assigned special numbers, with PA100001 going to S.M.A. Faruki and PA100002 to Burki.[44]

    Burki became the first deputy director of the

    Lieutenant General and appointed Director General of the Armed Forces Medical Services and Colonel Commandant of Pakistan Army Medical Corps in 1955.[15]

    General Burki did not see eye to eye with fellow Medical Corps General Mohammad Akram.[27]

    During the 1956 survey of Pakistan, it was reported that Burki was the Surgeon General of the Pakistan Armed Forces and was thanked along with the rest of his colleagues for their cooperation by the Nutrition Survey Team who arrived from the United States.[45][46][47]

    Burki also served as the Vice Prime Minister, Vice President, and acting

    President Ayub Khan's absence.[48][49][50]
    He was among the founders of the to be capital city, Islamabad, forming it from a mostly barren area of land.[15]

    On 13 October 1958, C-in-C Pakistan Army Ayub Khan assigned General Burki the task of improving the efficiency of hospitals and health agencies. Within days, Karachi hospitals showed significant improvement, and the medical services took on a new outlook. When questioned by the press about the "new look" in medical administration, General Burki with typical candor remarked, "When a doctor becomes greedy, he is no longer a good doctor. I want to eliminate greed in the medical profession and restore it to its former position of respect and honor." Wajid had earlier expressed dissatisfaction with the administration of civil hospitals in Lahore and Karachi, stating, "We must put such institutions under the charge of army officers to clean up the rot."[51][42]

    General Azam, General Burki, and General Khalid M. Shaikh were ordered by Muhammad Ayub Khan to go to President Major General Iskandar Ali Mirza and tell him to resign, which he did on 27 October 1958. On 6 November 1958, Iskandar Ali Mirza sent a secret telegram to the Secretary of State in Washington about the confrontation.[52][53][54][55]

    Wajid played an influential role in advising and formulating the health reforms and policies of

    President Ayub Khan passing a law legalizing Tibb and Burki withdrawing his proposal.[56][57][58]

    Burki was elected the first President of the Ophthalmological Society of Pakistan on 19 December 1957 at the King Edward Medical University in Lahore but resigned on 20 February 1959 due to being busy in his position of Health Minister.[30]

    During

    Queen Elizabeth II's visit to the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh in November 1959, she formally signed the Roll. To commemorate this notable event in the history of the college, Burki who was Director General of Medical Services in Pakistan, was among those offered Honorary Fellowship and was one of the nine individuals who accepted the honor.[59]

    Burki announced that Pakistan would spend $21,000,000 on family planning during the second five-year plan which was launched in 1960.[60]

    In 1959, as a part of a voluntary effort, the local people along with the Government of Pakistan, began a project to establish a primary health center in Shahabad, a village located about 45 miles from Peshawar. The local community donated five acres of land for the center, which received funding from the International Cooperation Administration. The center, with plans for three sub-centers in neighboring villages, aimed to serve the healthcare needs of 90,000 people and provide training for new nurses. Construction took eight months to complete. The site, chosen by Health Minister Burki, was strategically located on the right bank of the Indus, half a mile from the junction with the Kabul River.[61]

    Burki announced the second labour policy of Pakistan in February 1959.[62]

    In 1960, Burki said a curb on the high birth rate was necessary to prevent food shortage across the country and that most families barely manage to subsist.[63][64]

    From 19 April 1960 to 25 April 1960, Burki visited Pahlavi Iran on an invitation from the Iranian Minister of Health, where he was awarded Iran's Nishan-e-Humayun award.[65]

    On 1 August 1960, Burki tasked the Pakistan Army to assist in fighting cholera which had caused 200 deaths in 8 districts of West Pakistan in two months. The same month, Wajid was elected as an honorary member of the Rotary club of Pakistan.[66][67]

    On 16 September 1960, he laid the foundation stone for the

    SEATO Technical Training Centre in Karachi. The same year, he was elected as a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of London.[68] On November 1960, Burki inaugurated the Sixth All-Pakistan Medical Conference at the Pakistan Military Academy House.[69]

    A strong advocate for labourers rights, Burki prescribed 'shock treatment' for mill owners in order to make them treat their workers better in a speech given on 20 August 1961.[70]

    Burki accompanied

    President Ayub Khan on his visit to East Pakistan where they were received by Governor Ghulam Faruque Khan.[71]

    Burki stated to the press that he had agreed to allot five seats in the medical colleges of Pakistan for students from Saudi Arabia and augment the strength of the medical mission in Saudi Arabia. Further stating that if land was allotted, Pakistan may build a hospital in Saudi Arabia.[72]

    Burki received praise from the Association of American Medical Colleges in their 1962 edition of The Journal of Medical Education, for his efforts in improving medical education and community health conditions in Pakistan. The journal further stated that Burki played a key role in the collaboration between the Government of Pakistan and the UMSOM in establishing the International Center for Medical Research and Training at the Institute of Hygiene in Lahore.[73]

    Burki hosted

    Jacqueline Kennedy and her sister Lee Radziwill during their visit to Pakistan from 21-26 March 1962.[75][76]

    Second Ayub Khan cabinet

    On 17 February 1960, Burki took oath as Minister of Health, Labour, and Social Welfare. He was designated as Federal Minister of Education & Scientific Research, Kashmir Affairs & Minority Affairs on 2 March 1962.[77]

    Special Assistant

    Burki was appointed as Special Assistant to

    President Ayub Khan on 9 June 1962, with the privileges of a minister but without a position in the Cabinet, serving until 19 October 1963.[78][79]

    Burki's alma mater,

    University of St. Andrews conferred him with an Honorary doctorate on 10 October 1962. During his visit abroad, the University of Maryland, Baltimore awarded him the LL.D on 24 October 1962.[48][80][81][82]

    Diplomatic career

    General Burki was appointed as Ambassador of Pakistan (resident in Stockholm) to the Scandinavian countries Norway, Denmark, Sweden, and acredited to Finland, arriving in Helsinki on 21 October 1963 where he presented his letters of Credence to President Urho Kekkonen.[83][84][85][86][87]

    Later life, illness and death

    Burki lived a quiet life after retirement and kept himself busy at the

    College of Physicians and Surgeons of Pakistan
    as President.

    The Ophthalmological Society of Pakistan in its meeting in 1981 awarded Burki the Ramzan Ali Syed Gold Medal presented by the Chief Guest

    Prince Karim Aga Khan but Burki refused it, telling the organization to award it to Prof. Raja Mumtaz, who Burki said was an institution in himself and a great anthropologist. Raja reluctantly accepted the award and was awarded officially in 1986.[88]

    In 1988, Wajid noticed a persistent cough and after undergoing tests, was diagnosed with lung cancer in December 1988. Despite his earlier days as a heavy smoker, he and

    Field Marshal Ayub Khan
    had quit smoking on the advice of Prof Charles Wells, who had come to Pakistan to guide the Medical Reforms Commission. Wajid, however, chose to keep his diagnosis a secret, even from his wife, and explicitly instructed his doctors not to inform anyone, with his oldest son, Dr. Nausherwan Burki, being the only one who was aware of his condition.

    On 15 January 1989, two days before his death, he had chaired a meeting at the College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan and the news of his passing came as a shock to the medical and journalist communities, and his family who had no knowledge of his illness. President Ghulam Ishaq Khan mourned his death and General Burki was buried with full military honours.[1]
