I will bring back the Pakistanis stranded abroad. He said that the first problem was that we had limited screening facility and the provinces objected not to bring a large number of citizens from abroad so limited number of Pakistanis.

The Prime Minister said that the sectors which are most at risk will still be kept closed but all other sectors will remain open, the list of which will be revealed soon. He appealed to the people that we have to become a responsible nation. He gave the example that when they did a complete lockdown, the people there were in a bad condition, many people died, they had to walk for miles, but still, the coronavirus spread there and hospitals were filled, but still, they had to open the country due to poverty. I am sorry to say that the spread of the virus and the increase in deaths will increase, be as careful as the public.
