KARACHI: Marriage hall owners have decided to protest after the Sindh government announced new restrictions to prevent coronavirus in the province and an emergency meeting has been convened in this regard.
Rana Raees Ahmed, President of All Karachi marriage hall association, said that all the marriage halls are abiding by SOPs, where violations are taking place, the administration is also imposing fines, he added.
“We strongly condemn this decision. We have convened a meeting of our association,” he said. The meeting will work out a plan of action against these restrictions, protest peacefully against the decision and appeal to the government to reconsider the decision.
Rana Raees said that in the first phase the protest will be held in Karachi after which the scope of protest will be extended to Sindh province and across the country.
On the other hand, regarding the change in business hours in view of the spread of coronavirus by the Sindh government, Chairman All Karachi Traders Union Atiq said that the business community rejected the decisions of the Sindh Task Force under the protection of the virus.
Protests will be forced if improvements are not made in consultation with the delegates. Coronavirus’ precautionary decisions are unhelpful and more deadly than the coronavirus epidemic.
