"You have to follow the SOPs we have laid down. It is not that difficult, you have to wear a mask — I am not wearing one at the moment because people are at a distance from me — wash your hands with soap and water and maintain social distancing. You can meet each other once this is over," he said.

The minister added that a National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) meeting will review the relaxations done in lockdown as per the prime minister's vision.

He also said that a notice has already been taken on the shortage of petrol by the provincial government.

"A crackdown will be done and hoarders can face up to three years in jail."
