Author: APP

Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhry Fawad Hussain said on Friday that careful assessment of the Sindh government’s decision to lockdown [Karachi] was underway as Prime Minister Imran Khan had a candid policy against any step which impacted laymen’s livelihood.

“We are carefully reviewing the decision of the Sindh government to lockdown. The policy of the Prime Minister is very clear. We will oppose any move that would severely affect the economy of a common man,” he said in a tweet.

The minister called upon the Sindh government to devise a strategy in collaboration with the National Command and Operation Center (NCOC), which would have the least effect on business and livelihood of a common man.
