Sarwar blames opposition for resorting to political stunts

Punjab Governor Chaudhry Mohammad Sarwar has said that opposition is hurting national solidarity in the war against corona pandemic by resorting to political stunts that is not the right way to approach such a serious issue.

Time is not ripe for politics, we need to forge unity in the country. About 300,000 families are being provided ration through Punjab Development Network and those lost their wages/jobs due to corona crisis will not be left alone at any cost, the Governor said while talking to media here on Sunday.

MNA Riaz Fatiyana, FIEDMC Chairman Mian Kashif Ashfaq, PTI Central Member Haji Muhammad Ramzan, Punjab government's spokesman Raja Asad, MPA Saeed Ahmed Saadi and others were also present.

Punjab Governor Chaudhry Mohammad Sarwar said that war against corona is not the war of an individual or party but of 22 million Pakistanis, therefore, opposition parties should shun the policy of doing politics over corona crisis rather show unity and solidarity in this regard.

In Sha Allah, together we all have to succeed in fighting out corona pandemic. He said that under leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan, the federal government has given biggest relief package in country's history, while all the deserving families are being provided relief goods and financial support transparently and without any political discrimination through Ehsaas Programme. In Sha Allah, no poor family will be deprived of this relief and fiscal assistance.
