The Sindh government has decided to allow students belonging to Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) return to their homes amid coronavirus lockdown.
The provincial government has decided to give NOC to the GB students enrolled in different educational institutions of Sindh so they could return to their homes. Murtaza Wahab has announced that the health authorities will conduct coronavirus tests of 2,570 students before their departure to their hometown. He said that the GB students were enrolled in different educational institutions.
He said that the students, who are willing to return to their hometowns, will be given clearance after coronavirus tests. Murtaza Wahab added that those students tested negative will be allowed to travel to their homes.
It is pertinent to mention here that the students belonging to Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) were facing difficulties for moving back to their hometowns due to ongoing lockdown across Sindh following coronavirus pandemic.
Earlier, Sindh Transport Minister Syed Awais Shah summoned a meeting of the transporters on Tuesday (Today) to discuss problems being faced by the transporters amid lockdown.
President Karachi Transport Ittehad Irshad Bukhari gave the ultimatum to the Sindh government to relax the rules for them in the lockdown within three days.
“We will wait for three days for Sindh government’s decision, after then will park the vehicles on the roads”, Irshad Bukhari was quoted as saying.
