It is pertinent to mention here that PS Bara Kaho is among the worst hit areas of Coronavirus and has been in lockdown. Foregoing the same and keeping in view the Police and public interaction, the gate has been installed to protect Police officers and visiting public from the highly contagious COVID 19.
SP City Safaraz Ahmed Virk formally inaugurated the gate in a simple ceremony attended among others by SDPO Bhara Kahu Hamza Aman Ullah. It is a known fact that the COVID 19 Virus does not survive easily in the environment where this innovative device comes in.
