The Advisor to Sindh Chief Minister on Home Affairs Wasim Akhtar while expressing grief and shock over the loss of life caused by billboards coming to ground due to heavy rains and thunderstorm said that cases will be registered against the responsible advertisement companies.
According to Aaj TV the Advisor said that after black listing the advertising companies whose billboards caused the deaths to the innocent people their licenses would also be cancelled. He directed all the billboard companies to bring down all the billboards, which are dilapidated or in bad shape before the next rains.
