Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah has asked people not to visit their villages on Eidul Fitr, warning that an outbreak of the virus in remote areas will be difficult to manage due to poor resources.

He said that the spread of Covid-19 in cities has already overburdened the health system of the country. If the virus spread in villages, where health resources are scarce and access to facilities is difficult, it would be tough for the government to cope with the crisis.

He also addressed the criticism on the provincial government, saying that even though people find faults with the measures taken in Sindh, they acknowledge, at the same time, that the province moved quickly to curb the spread.
