INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
KATHMANDU: In the video conference held today by Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli with chief ministers of the seven provinces, issues related to
prevention of Covid-19 and effective implementation of lockdown were discussed.
PM Oli Press Advisor, Surya Thapa, quoted the prime minister
as saying that the ongoing lockdown will not end quite so soon
He also informed that border security will be tightened further and requested to be aware of the circumstances that we are
facing.
PM Oli, in that regard, said that it was insignificant to open the borders now as infections are increasing in India
He added that there is no better mechanism right now than what the government has adopted, hence requested the ministers to regulate the
functions properly, in the time of crisis.
Furthermore, he has directed security personnel to remain vigilant in not allowing people to form
crowds and requested people not to follow distracting views and irrelevant feeds.
In the process of containing the virus, the country will
have accomplished outstanding progress in the fields of health, treatment, laboratory, equipment and health supplies, as well as skilled
human resource management, he believed.
The four-hour-long conference was a needed discussion to share each province report on controlling
the virus, necessary treatments, and efforts made.
