Abstract

Covid-19 pandemic has caused serious and severe problems and difficulties for the individuals throughout the world. The governments of almost every country that are suffering badly by the virus have taken important steps regarding its control and prevention from the spread. Similarly, Pakistan also adopted policies regarding the control of the Covid-19, as the health of the public is one of the major concerns of the government. This research paper shows that how Punjab and Sindh, being the two provinces of Pakistan implemented the policies for the care of the individuals and control of the virus’s transmission. The research has been conducted through primary data collection by getting the surveys filled physically, and consulting the official documents and reports of the Ministry of Health of the two provinces i.e. Punjab and Sindh as well as the higher authorities of the country. The data collected has been analysed through relative techniques. Resultantly, the research paper concludes that which province is better in controlling the spread of the virus through efficient policies. In addition to this, the research paper also highlights that do people continue supporting their favourite political parties even though it wins from some other province rather than their own.
