Residents of Tehkal hold protest against K-P govt’s ‘failure’ to control dengue

The residents of Tehkal area in Peshawar staged on Monday a protest demonstration against the provincial authorities’ failure to control the spread of dengue epidemic, Radio Pakistan reported.

The protesters criticised the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) led government for, what they claimed, not taking any appropriate measures to protect the people against the viral disease.



The K-P government has constantly been facing criticism for its 'response' to the dengue outbreak in the province.

According to reported statistics, so far over 30 people have become victim to the lethal disease.
