A meeting of the National Coordination Committee (NCC) to be presided over by Prime Minister Imran Khan will be held today to decide the future strategy. It will decide whether or not to further ease lockdown restrictions.
The government had shuttered the businesses when the coronavirus struck the country, suspending production and trading activities and closing schools, parks, and other public places by imposing lockdown from the third week of March to stem the coronavirus.
The government, however, started easing lockdown restrictions from May 9, opening up various sectors under the standard operating procedures (SOPs) and safety measures to avoid the spread of the virus.
