Amid coronavirus (Covid-19) outbreak, many political parties are making statements along with the ruling party of Imran Khan. In a paradoxical statement, Defence Minister Parvez Khattak said in a political gathering about a ban on political gatherings. Absurdly, how can one ban a thing which he is doing himself?
Moreover, the Defence Minister was addressing a political gathering at Nowshera and also talk about emergency regarding Coronavirus.

Imran Khan on his official Twitter Handle talked about COVID-19
The premier on Twitter wrote, “We are alert”.
We are alert to the dangers & have put in place sufficient protocols for the safety and health of our people. The WHO has commended our efforts as being amongst the best in the world.

I want to inform the nation I am personally overseeing measures to deal with COVID 19 & will address the nation soon. I would advise people to follow safety instructions issued by our govt. While there is a need for caution there is no need for panic.

Although Pakistan is taking measures against the virus, there is still a large ground that needs coverage. The paradoxical statement of the defense minister shows the non-seriousness of the government. Moreover, Parvez Khattak should explain the his absurd statement. As a general rule, one cannot stop the other from doing something, until one oneself is doing that particular thing.
