\nHe chaired a meeting to review the law and order situation in Lahore. Provincial Minister of Law Raja Basharat and concerned officials attended the meeting.
\nQuestioning why it is imperative for the opposition to hold a rally when coronavirus cases are on the rise, he emphasised that the government will deal with the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) in accordance with the law.
\nThe PDM is adamant on holding a rally today [Sunday] in Lahore despite the federal and provincial governments denying permission for a public gathering citing the rise in Covid-19 infections.
\nLaw Minister Raja Basharat in a briefing informed the session about threat alerts adding that the opposition parties have been informed in writing about these threats.
\nThe chief minister directed for taking all possible steps to ensure the writ of the government and warned that no person will be allowed to violate the law.
