This is the same crap I have been hearing over and over again, therefore I couldnt resist and have to say what is right.
If this
total lockdown had been been imposed, this means that millions of Pakistani's who work on daily wages wouldnt be able to put food on the table for their families - (mind you, there are millions who only eat once and dont have luxury to have multiple meals per day). This
total lockdown would've ensured that they will die with hunger, which IK has said. Also, initially there was no data, no mechanism whatsoever to know the deserving candidates so that funds can be transfer to them via Ehsaas program before the lockdown. Through Ehsaas program initiative TWO million families received Rs12,000, which never happened in history of the country, but there is not even a single word of appreciate I see here and yet people are busy in cheap point scoring - credit should be given where credit is due (btw: I bet this funds transfer wouldnt have happened in PML-N or PPP were at the helm).

People on the streets were saying we might not die with Corona but will die with hunger - whats your resolution to handle this situation? You cant pursue towards strict lockdown and shutdown everything indefinitely in country like Pakistan where millions work on daily wages.
More to the point, we saw
total lockdown imposed by Sindh Govt, did you not see what happened in Sindh including country's biggest metropolitian city. Icing on the cake, we already saw how PPP's corruption was exposed during their
ration distribution drama, however, people wouldnt say a word on it and bash PTI and IK - what a shame !!!
Furthermore,
SC of Pakistan is no less culprit, because they ordered to open shopping malls and markets seven days a week, which were earlier shut down during the lockdown imposed to curb the coronavirus pandemic - why dont you and others like you point fingers at them?

Govt has every right to blame people, because they've been told from month how brutal this virus could be via difference source of communication. When every country did the lockdown the intend was not only to slow down the spread and also to educate the people to adhere health measures to curb the virus. By now we all should know that,
1) We need to wear mask
2) Wear gloves
3) Practice social distance
4) Wash our hands very often
In the end it all boils down to every individual, we all have been told enough how lethal this virus is and now onus is on us, the people, to do our due diligence and adhere health measures to protect us and our love ones - what so difficult in it to understand? But no, many Pakistani wouldnt admit their own fault and point fingers at Govt for their own mistakes/failures. Its not PM or health minister's job to babysit us to ensure that we are following all the instructions we have been told from months.
Who in his/her right mind wouldnt blame these people?
For many Pakistani's its always
somebody's fault, they will always point fingers at others but will will never acknowledge their own mistake, which is the first step towards the resolution of the problem.
If one is adamant about its own fault, he will never be able to rectify it.
