No decision taken to shut schools again: Ghani

Author: Agencies

Sindh Minister for Education Saeed Ghani has said that no decision has been taken to close schools again in the province. “The reports about the schools’ closure are baseless,” Ghani said while addressing a press conference along with PPP leader Waqar Mehdi on Friday. The education minister said that the citizens should follow the government-issued coronavirus safety protocols. “We have imposed a micro lockdown for now. People should not force the government to impose a complete lockdown,” the education minister said. The development comes after several areas in Karachi were put under a micro smart lockdown following an increase in coronavirus cases, including Creek Vista Apartments Block A, Phase VIII, DHA, Askari III, Civil Lines, Saddar, and Manghopir.
