We must raise our voices against VIP protocol, especially if it ends up endangering people’s lives
ISLAMABAD: The death of Bisma, a 10-month old girl is a huge tragedy. It was very unfortunate that her father couldn’t get her to the hospital in time due to the presence of VIP protocol. This is not the only case in which the last breath of an innocent child was snatched in this manner.
We must raise our voices against VIP protocol, especially if it ends up endangering people’s lives. All citizens must be treated and protected equally. VIP culture must be abolished as Imran Khan has already officially announced in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.
