Addressing the people, he said that during the lockdown, we have to decide whether to defeat Corona as in last year or create the worst situation in the country like that in India.
He said that the current dangerous situation demanded that the citizens should fully implement the government directives and SOPs to control the Corona pandemic and cooperate with the deployed police and Pakistan Army in this regard.
The law minister added that all citizens should realize their responsibility and protect themselves as well as others from the Corona by following preventive measures effectively.
