LAHORE: (HRNW) A writ petition was filed in the Lahore High Court on Thursday challenging the government’s January 4 decision to reopen educational institutions across the country on Jan 18.
Advocate Syed Faisal Miran petitioned the high court, naming Federal Education Minister Shafqat Mahmood and other relevant authorities as respondents.
He states that the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic is proving to be more dangerous yet the government didn’t ready itself in advance to cope with the situation.
He said social distancing and other Covid-19 rules are flagrantly being violated across the country everyday. The government-prescribed SOPs were not adhered to at educational institutions previously, he pointed out.
