The Punjab Governor said that due to negligence in social distancing during Eid-ul-Azha and Muharram, coronavirus could get out of control again and strict implementation of SOPs in cattle markets would take time.
He said that the role of the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) in dealing with coronavirus would go down in history.
On the other hand, according to government orders, the Punjab government had decided to keep the markets closed for nine days on the occasion of Eid-ul-Adha to stop the spread of the coronavirus. It was decided in the meeting that unnecessary markets would be closed on Eid across Punjab. Markets will be closed for selected days to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
