Staff Report

ISLAMABAD: Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Youth Affairs Usman Dar on Saturday said that Sindh government has refused to coordinate with the coronavirus relief tiger force in the province. “The Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan governments have also refused to utilize the resources of the force to tackle coronavirus,” said that focal person of the Corona Relief Tiger Force.
Usman Dar said that 150,000 people were registered with the tiger force from the Sindh province and asked the Chief Minister Sindh Syed Murad Ali Shah to revisit his decision on the matter. “These youngsters could be very helpful in dealing with the pandemic,” he said.
He said that the tiger force would be made functional in the country from the next week. He further refuted a propaganda that termed the force a waste of the national resources. Usman Dar said that the members of the provincial assembly would play their role in activating the force across the country.
