ISLAMABAD – Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Chaudhry Fawad Hussain Saturday regretted that the opposition was doing politics on the Murree tragedy instead of extending a helping hand to the heavy snowfall victims.
Addressing a press conference at 90 Shahrah-e-Quaid-i-Azam along with Federal Minister for Education and Professional Training Shafqat Mahmood, he said the opposition’s job was just to make hue and cry for their personal motives.
He said that the government was fully alert and standing with the people in this difficult time and added that the situation was improving as all the relevant departments were busy to overcome the situation.
The minister said in the last 48 hours, Murree received unprecedented snowfall, which resulted in loss of precious human lives.
He said that Kuldana and Barian were the most affected areas and loss of human lives also occured in these areas.
He said that the Murree commissioner said that such a record breaking snowfall in Murree had occurred after decades, creating this sort of situation.
