PM Imran Faces Criticism For Downplaying Coronavirus Situation In Pakistan

In his address to the nation on Tuesday night, Prime Minister Imran Khan said that there was no need for a lockdown in Pakistan because the coronavirus situation in the country was not too serious.

PM Imran has been accused of downplaying the coronavirus pandemic in the country. Twitterati have expressed their displeasure on PM Imran Khan’s speech, saying that the prime minister has not said anything substantial and concrete to reassure the nation in times of a crisis. People are complaining that instead of highlighting the already-known precautionary measures, the premier should have talked about the government's policies and what strategies it is adopting to deal with the pandemic.
