Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Health Dr Faisal Sultan, cautioned that more precautions were needed to control the spread of Covid-19, since data showed that closing the educational institutions earlier had led to a "delay in [the spread of] the virus". In a separate press conference, Punjab Minister for School Education Dr Murad Raas termed the 50 per cent attendance policy "the most important thing", saying that schools were being opened "not because the coronavirus situation [had improved] but because the children were incurring huge educational losses". Pakistan, Turkey ink education MoU - The News Turkish foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu and Pakistani education minister Shafqat Mahmood signed a MoU for the promotion of literacy in Pakistan in a ceremony also attended by foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi.
