Rise in coronavirus deaths is worrisome: Shehbaz Sharif

Author: DNA

President of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Mian Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday said that rise in number of deaths from novel coronavirus is worrisome.

Opposition Leader of National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif said that instead of self-deception, an immediate meeting of Council of Common Interests should be convened. Shehbaz Sharif also called for a joint strategy against coronavirus after consultation with doctors, administration, political and military leadership. He said the coronavirus situation in the country is worsening by the day and Pakistan’s top doctors, civil and military leadership need to discuss steps to counter the virus spread. PML-N President, while responding to several statements by PTI leaders, asked that if lockdown is not a solution of the issue than what is government’s alternative coronavirus strategy.

Shehbaz Sharif has also questioned the PTI-led federal government’s stance on the coronavirus lockdown. “What is the government’s alternate strategy if they are not imposing a complete lockdown,” the politician asked in a video message.
