Police have increased the security in order to ensure the protection of precious life,” she said adding that “all necessary steps will be taken to ensure the safety of Shia pilgrims as they are often targeted on return from the Iran.”
“It is a 700-kilometer long route that is why it not easy to ensure the safety. However, steps are taken to improve the security system without bothering the Shia pilgrims.”

She further said that she had visited the grieving family of Batool and also held the meeting with IG Police along with a delegation of Hazara community.
The protection of Hazara community is one of the important issues for the premier, that is why I have come here, she added.

Marvi Is this some kind of commercial that you are doing....After thousand of brutal killing of mothers, children and innocents pilgrims , you are not taking measures, This is a real cruel commercial.
is this a cruel joke? Govt it taking measures now? Are you serious Marvi? Now? Delay it a bit more. Let few hundred more human beings be killed and then appoint a commettie to do the investigation. By then your 5 years would be over.
