On this occasion, Bukhari said the Christian community has been asked to provide data of people living in the slum areas “so an incessant supply of food and medicines can be make sure for them”.

He further said that the government has decided to launch an essential supply distribution campaign for poor families residing in slum areas.

He also hinted at a sanitation campaign to disinfect all of the city’s slum areas including churches, homes, and streets within, so that the people’s lives can be protected from the deadly epidemic.
