Indeed. 

 

There was a guy from Mardan, KPK who came back from umrah (saudia arabia) and threw grand party in the city. He even refused to be isolated after being tested and died on the day he was declared positive. 

 

Whole Mardan city has been locked down.

lol there's no cure for stupidity...

How's the situation right now in the neighborhood? 

In my city it is ok. People living in towns and societies don't go out at all. Everything is closed except grocery shops and medical facilities. Official cases are also lower compred to average in the country however lahore has been reported to have plenty of cases.

 

Islamabad has been locked down as well. Total new reported cases today were 50-60 country wide.

 

I hope and pray that things are controlled but from what I've heard, it'll take two months to contain it with all the efforts, it could have been done in a month if airports were closed earlier and had there been no "taftan debacle"

I think for all his flaws, Khan's decision of not to bring back Wuhan students was a wise one. 

 

But this taftan debacle is awful. 

How is it "wise" - its not that difficult to bring back a couple of 100 students, and either quarantine them in a dorm, or have them strictly self-quarantine at home.  

 

Put yourself in the position of those people - left bereft in a strange land.  At least Khan should have allowed those folks to evacuate when India offered.

Bro, being a leader of a country and leaving your own people stranded is never wise. That's not a good leadership quality. Should have brought them back and then qurantine them or put them at lockdown somewhere in the country.

 If those students were your brother or sisters, you won’t be saying this. 

 

He’s right to some extent. Modi’s biggest mistake was bringing back so many NRIs and students abroad and letting them undergo “self” quarantine. I’m not against bringing people back, but they cannot be relied upon to follow rules and be truthful. Just to give an example, this Kanika kapoor lady.

If there was a fauji kid among those students, you would have seen the numero uno mehekma raising hell to make sure he/she is evacuated. But since these were ordinary Abduls and Ayeshas, it was a good chance to reduce population.

Indian embassies have stopped evacuating citizens overseas. Unfortunate.

Fauji kids dont go to Wuhan for 'study'.  They go to Amreeka and Londonistan.  Even the handful that may go to China, are going to be in top Chinese universities in Beijing/Shanghai.  But that is still a decade or so away.  Given the fact that Faujis can't buy "assets", land, houses in China, they are less likely to send their kids there.  More likely to send their kids to "study" in destinations where they can send they looted 'savings' to launder.

And these shameless creatures claim to care for their Kashmiri brothers.

Pakistan army forcibly moving coronavirus positive patients to PoK and Gilgit

https://www.economictimes.com/news/defence/pakistan-army-forcibly-moving-covid-19-positive-patients-to-pok-and-gilgit/amp_articleshow/74833499.cms

 

 

Do we have a non-Indian source to confirm this?

 

This pandemic is going to highlight and contrast the fate of Kashmiris on either side of the border.  And that of Indians/Pakistanis.  

 

"Indian" Kashmir is far more developed with facilities than PoK.  It has hospitals, colleges etc, while PoK has "Phaujj".  Once we are past the epidemic, Indian and Local Kashmiri government should highlight the differences in quality and outcome for Indian Kashmiris and compare them to their Pakistani counterparts all over that country.  Then a lot of those idiots dreaming of Nizam e Mustafa will come to their senses. Or not.

Indian Kashmir is facing the exact same problem - lots of Shia pilgrims AND lot of students in Iran.  But let's be honest, the govt systems and facilities in Indian Kashmir are simply a level above its PoK counterpart.  It is what it is.

Yes, you are right. Also landscape and access to gilgit baltistan is much more difficult as compared to azad kashmir in itself. 

 

Islamabad to Gilgit is 500+ KMs with a broken highway from besham to chillas. Other route (babusar top) is closed due to winter.

 

Major supplies will be from china through xinjiang. 

 

Btw i wish our army for once could do something good and beat **** out of people to keep them in home. People here are roaming around with their bikes in punjab. They are keeping it tight in sindh though
