Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Minister for Information Ajmal Wazir has said that the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government will take care of the Tableeghi Jamaat members currently in the province.

"We will make sure they don't suffer at all, some of them have tested positive and are being quarantined.

"We will request leaders like Maulana Tariq Jamil to tell the nation that the govt's purpose of quarantining people is to protect everyone from coronavirus, thus everyone should strictly follow the SOPs laid down by the government," the minister said.
