MULTAN: The District Council of Dera Ghazi Khan has passed a resolution imposing a ban on growing beard in different styles.

DG Khan’s Deputy Commissioner has been made incharge of ensuring that this ban is carried out and the youth is halted from indulging in this trend.

It’s equivalent to making “fun of the beard”, the resolution concluded, which was chaired by Asif Khosa. He made it clear that awareness needs to be spread about what is wrong in pursuing such trends.
