The Sindh Home Department on Wednesday notified a two-day ban on pillion riding in Sindh, including Karachi, on August 13 and 14 in order to maintain law and order.
The decision to ban pillion riding was taken at the request of Sindh Rangers in order to avoid any untoward incident on the occasion of Independence Day celebrations.
According to a notification, the provincial govt also banned one wheeling of a motorcycle during the said period.
“The aforesaid ban shall not be applicable on the women, children below the age of 12, journalists, disabled persons, personnel of law enforcement agencies and security guards of all private companies,” read the order issued by the Sindh Home Department.
