BNP-M MNA Agha Hassan Baloch held the Balochistan government responsible for the spread of the coronavirus in the country.

"The Zaireen that came to Taftan, Chief Minister Jam Kamal Khan did not take proper steps to curb the risk of the virus spreading. Due to their negligence, the entire country is suffering. The facilities at the quarantine centres were deplorable," he said.
