ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 2nd Apr, 2020 ) :Leader Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Kanwal Shauzab Thursday urged the nation to adopt maximum social distancing as a precautionary measure against the threat of coronavirus pandemic.

Media is very important in this situation as sensationalism could lead to panic that might make the situation worse, she said during a Radio Program.

It is a difficult time for daily wagers in particular who are most affected by the lock down but the government has announced a relief packages for such deserving masses, she added.

Pakistan is a developing country with limited resources but doing whatever possible for the betterment of people. It is time to be united and this is not the appropriate time for politics as it is the national issue, leader said.
