Islamabad: July 17, 2020 (TNS): Prime Minister Imran Khan has urged the people to strictly observe the standard operating procedures on upcoming Eid-ul-Azha to avert the resurgence of the downing coronavirus cases in the country.
In a tweet today, he said Eid ul Azha must be celebrated with simplicity so as not to repeat what happened last Eid when SOPs were ignored and our hospitals were choked.
The Prime Minister said Pakistan is amongst the fortunate countries where number of COVID-19 cases in hospitals, especially in the intensive care units has gone down , unlike in our unfortunate neighbor India.
He said this positive trend has been the result of our smart lockdown policy and the nation observing government’s SOPs.
