Hundreds of pilgrims were called back to Quetta from the Taftan border and special checkposts had been established to monitor their movement. Authorities have now confirmed that trade activities have begun at the Pak-Iran border after a gap of 14 days. According to local administration, movement of goods laden trucks and trailers has also started following the restoration of trade activities. Passengers arriving in the country through Taftan border are kept in quarantine at Pakistan House, where the number of travellers has crossed 3,000. While the country’s first coronavirus patient recovered fully, the other two in Sindh are also showing progress.
