'For a population of 220 million, only 300,000 Covid-19 tests have been carried out so far showing the incompetence of this inept PTI government,' PML-N Punjab Information Secretary Azma Bokhari said in a statement here on Wednesday.

She also alleged that the Punjab government was not conducting tests aggressively.

'The number of coronavirus cases is high in Punjab but the number of tests is low.
