Raja Basharat visited various areas of Lahore including, Liberty Market, Barkat Market, Jail Road and Gulberg to review the lockdown position.
Speaking on the occasion, the minister said that relaxation in lockdown before Eidul Azha will bring negative results like Eidul Fitr. Business community should extend its support to the government and implement lockdown.
Raja Basharat said that lockdown has been enforced by the government to ensure safety of the masses as coronavirus is still a threat.
It may be noted that shopkeepers in Rawalpindi, Sargodha and other areas refused to obey the lockdown orders and opened their businesses.
