Appeals to citizens to ensure 100pc implementation of lockdown

LAHORE: Chief Minister Usman Buzdar has said his government has taken all-out measures to safeguard the lives of people and every possible measure will be taken in future as well to protect the masses from the coronavirus.

The government is standing by with the people of the province at this difficult time and will not leave them alone, he said in a statement here on Thursday.

We as government are with our masses in joys and sorrows and will always remain like that, he added. Usman Buzdar said he considers the difficulties of people as his own. We are not those who left the people in difficult times and the measures which are being taken by the government are meant for safeguarding the lives of people. We do not do politics of self-projection, rather we consider it a mean of thanking Allah Almighty, he added. The chief minister appealed to the citizens to ensure hundred per cent implementation of lockdown for the sake of collective safety of the nation. Today's social distancing will save us from the agony of a permanent separation, he said.
