May 20, 2020
Gilgit-Baltistan (PoK), May 20 (ANI): An unannounced administrative order of sealing district borders of Gilgit town in the illegally occupied region of Gilgit-Baltistan has caused massive inconvenience to the people. Hundreds of vehicles are stranded at district border after they have been denied entry. The cops say that the measures have been taken in light of preventive steps being taken by authorities to stem the spread of coronavirus. However, the locals who are stuck in an atmosphere similar to that of police detention say the measures were announced impromptu to trouble the people of the region.
