LAHORE : Punjab Assembly Speaker Ch Pervaiz Elahi has opposed opening of educational institutions in the province in the wake of fourth wave of Corona which is spreading very fast.

On the occasion, a plan was formulated for resolving issues pertaining to NA-65, PP-23 and PP-24. Ch Pervaiz Elahi said the new wave of Corona was a moment of contemplation.

Do not play with the lives of children and parents by opening educational institutions. SOPs should strictly be implemented to prevent Corona, the speaker said.

Fourth wave of Corona was spreading very fast. So don’t open educational institutions and make people suffer from it, he said. With the Corona pandemic, the country's economy and the whole world has been ruined and everyone will have to work together to strengthen the economy, Pervaiz added.
