ISLAMABAD: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Shibli Faraz has urged the opposition not to play with lives of people for its personal gains, as the second wave of Corona is at peak.

Addressing a news conference in Islamabad in response to PDM's public gathering in Multan, he said the opposition is unduly making furore and fuss to protect their looted money.

The Minister said in recent past these leaders were demanding strict lockdown in the country and now they have pushed aside the threats of pandemic for the sake of their personal motives.

He said the current opposition did nothing for poor people of the country and they should realize that these tactics will not work to get people's support.

Talking about inflation and other problems faced by the country, the Minister said the government is taking concrete measures to resolve all such issues.

Reiterating the government’s stance on Israel's acceptance, he said Prime Minister Imran Khan has stated on several occasions that Pakistan would never accept the Jewish state unless the resolution of Palestine dispute.
