ISLAMABAD, May 12 (APP):Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhry Fawad Hussain Wednesday urged the people to cooperate with the government and follow the standard operating procedures (SOPs) to stay safe from coronavirus pandemic.
In a video message, he warned that if people would not comply with the SOPs, Pakistan could also face a situation similar to neighbouring India.
کورونا کے پھیلاؤ کے باعث یہ عید باقی عیدوں کی نسبت مختلف ہے پہلے عید کی خوشیاں ہم اپنے دوستوں عزیزوں اقارب کے ساتھ مل کر مناتے تھے لیکن اس بار ہم سب نے مل کر کورونا وباء کے پھیلاؤ کو روکنا یے اس لئے عید کی خوشیاں اپنے گھروں میں رہ کر منائیں اور اپنے پیاروں کا تحفظ یقینی بنائیں pic.twitter.com/bw1Gul2i46

He, therefore, asked the people to adopt ‘stay home and stay safe’ policy during the Eid-ul-Fitr holidays.
He said instead of visiting the relatives on the occasion of Eid, they should use the means of internet and phone for communication with them as this was important for the safety of everyone.
Fawad said the government had also imposed ban on intra-city transport to limit the mobility during Eid holidays.
