Urgent Action
First UA: 39/20 Index: ASA 33/2032/2020 Pakistan Date: 26 March 2020 URGENT ACTION PUNJAB PRISONERS AT HEIGHTENED RISK OF COVID-19 An inmate at Camp Jail, with a prison population of 3,500 people, in the provincial capital Lahore tested positive for coronavirus before being transferred to a medical facility. Prisons in Punjab face massive overcrowding, with limited hygiene supplies and insufficient access to healthcare. Forcing inmates to practice social distancing would be impossible, given the overcrowding, drastically increasing the potential for the virus to spread. Pakistani authorities must protect the health of all prisoners and should urgently consider measures to reduce the prison population. Should the government fail to act now, Pakistani prisons and detention centers could become hotspots for the transmission of coronavirus. TAKE ACTION: 1. Write a letter in your own words or using the sample below as a guide to one or both government officials listed. You can also email, fax, call or Tweet them. 2. Click here to let us know the actions you took on Urgent Action 39.20. It’s important to report because we share the total number with the officials we are trying to persuade and the people we are trying to help.

Kundian Forest Revival to Create Jobs: PM Imran Prime Minister
Kundian forest revival to create jobs: PM Imran 24 February 2020 Prime Minister Imran Khan has said the revival of Kundian forest will provide job opportunities as human resources will be required to guard, water and nurture plants. Talking to the media after inaugurating tree plantation campaign here on Sunday, he said unfortunately, the huge Kundian forest, planted before the Partition, had been turned into a barren land owing to the apathy of the previous governments. He said of the total 19,271 acres of forest area, around 5,000 acres had some green cover while the rest 5,222 acres are barren and would be turned into forest by massive forestation during the next four years under 10 billion tree tsunami project. The prime minister, who planted a sapling, asked the locals to guard the forest against tree fellers and land grabbers. Under the spring tree plantation drive, 250 million saplings would be planted across the country with 1.3 million to be planted in one day as part of ‘Plant for Pakistan Day’ observed on the day. The prime minister said the young generation, particularly children, were required to be sensitised on the importance of trees and also called for its inclusion in the education curriculum. He said being rich with diverse weathers and water resources, Pakistan should be exporting food to the world instead of facing shortage. He said biodiversity in the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa had revived following the success of one billion tree tsunami project. He said a considerable number of berry plants would be planted in the forest which would help produce honey as many investors were awaiting to invest in honey production.
