Pakistan's smart lockdown policy proved successful PM Imran Khan,
ISLAMABAD – Prime Minister Imran Khan says Pakistan is among the few countries that have largely controlled Covid-19 pandemic in a short period.Addressing the media on Monday, the Pakistani premier said the deaths reported due to coronavirus yesterday were the lowest in three months.
With a continuous declining trend of coronavirus cases in the country, he added, the pressure on hospitals has reduced.
Khan further said that the PTI government was the first that adopted the policy of smart lockdown, which proved successful. He said other countries replicated this policy.
Imran Khan said the countries that enforced complete lockdown, such as India, suffered a lot in respect of increase in poverty.
He said disbursement of amount among the needy under Ehsaas Program during the pandemic was another success story of the government.
The Prime Minister warned that if precautionary measures are not adopted during Eid-ul Azha and Muharram-ul Haram, the country will witness another spike of Coronavirus cases.
He said in case of increase in the cases after Eid and Muharram, the government will have to impose lockdown again, which will negatively affect economy of the country.
Imran Khan appealed to people to strictly observe standard operating procedures against Covid-19 during the Eid and Muharram.

Police register gr***de attack Fir in Karachi

The counter-terrorism department registered on Saturday the FIR of the gr***de attack on Gulbahar DSP's office carried out the previous day.
The case has been registered under Sections three and four of the Explosives Act, 1884 and Section seven of the Anti-Terrorism Act, 1997 on behalf of Super Market Police Station SHO Ghous Bakhsh.
According to the FIR, four armed men, on two motorcycles, carried out the attack before fleeing through narrow streets.
They had hurled a hand gr***de at the DSP's office, but the device failed to explode.
Following this, a large contingent of police and Rangers personnel cordoned off the area and launched a search for the suspects. According to the bomb disposal squad, which defused the gr***de, the item was American-made, highly explosive and could have caused the loss of several lives had it detonated.
Later, the DSP stated that they were investigating the case from different angles and could not rule out the possibility that it was linked to the recent spate of attacks on law enforcers in the city.
