'Corona politics' will not work now, Buzdar tells opposition.

LAHORE -- Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has said that 'Corona Politics' of opposition leaders will not work now.

'First, opposition did politics to promote business and now they are playing political-gamic over corona issue. He said 22 crore people have been fed up from the negative politics of the dual face politicians.

He said those doing the criticism for the sake of criticism were totally unaware about the ground realities.

He alleged that Opposition leaders, despite corona pandemic, made a vicious attempt to destroy national solidarity.

He alleged that the opposition harmed the national interests for the personal gain. Opposition's attempt to divide the nation in this time of trail is highly condemnable.

Buzdar has directed to take all necessary measures to protect the crops from the attack of locust. He said that concerned departments should remain alert for the protection of crops...
