ISLAMABAD: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Senator Shibli Faraz says the government would impose smart lockdown in hot spot areas across the country to contain the spread of coronavirus pandemic.

Talking to a private news channel, he said the hot spot areas would be sealed, as the number of COVID-19 patients is increasing.

The Information Minister said the COVID-19 patients' number in Pakistan is still less as compared to other countries.
