Forget about going to the hospital and just bid a farewell to your family
KARACHI: The security plan for the three-match T20I series against West Indies that starts on Sunday, April 1, has been shared on almost all media platforms in the country so that Karachiites can steer their way accordingly. However, the security plan, which is quite similar to that devised for the Pakistan Super League final held in the National Stadium on March 25th, shows that Karachi would be in an almost lockdown mode. So in case anyone in the city has a heart attack, they better make sure to have their heart attack planned keeping in mind at least an hour commute they will have to take to reach to the emergency ward of a hospital, especially on April 2nd and 3rd, when it would be work as usual for the metropolis. Or even better! Forget about going to the hospital and just bid a farewell to your family, because with all the main junctions blocked, there is very little possibility of surviving. Just a little price to pay for ‘cricket comes home’.
