ISLAMABAD: Minister for Planning, Development and Special Initiatives Asad Umar on Thursday said during last one year, the worst violation of the Covid Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) came from the politicians.
“Two weeks back Bilawal Bhutto Zardari was threatening to hold prime minister and ministers accountable if COVID spreads further in Karachi and now Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) announces holding a ‘Jalsa’ this month in Karachi! Sadly the worst violations of Covid-19 SOPs in the last one year have come from politicians,” he tweeted.
The minister who is also chairman of National Command and Operation Center (NCOC) said he had recommended that Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) elections should be postponed for a couple of months and before the elections a special vaccination campaign should run, but it was not agreed.
In another tweet, Asad Umar said that some 40 million vaccination doses had been administered so far. “The last 10 million took only nine working days to administer. Let’s vaccinate and make Pakistan safe from this disease”, he added.
