ISLAMABAD (92 News) – Information Minister Fawad Chaudhary has hinted at imposing the complete lockdown across the country.

Talking to the media on Saturday, he said that only 21 percent coronavirus SOPs are being followed. "The government will consider the complete lockdown if the situation did not improve in a week," he announced.

The minister said that the opposition parties should not do politics over the issue of the banned Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan. "We want the government and the opposition should discuss the electoral reforms. Shahid Khaqan Abbasi's attitude reflected that he wanted to keep politics bitter," he maintained.

Fawad Chaudhary said that they are cooperating with the Sindh government, but it was not reciprocating in the same manner. "The Sindh government has tirned the entire Sindh into rubbles," he said.
