LAHORE: Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz on Saturday ordered a crackdown on those involved in kite flying, resulting in loss of precious human lives.

She expressed her indignation over the frequent occurrence of kite flying despite a ban on the activity.

She directed the police and district administration to take a stern action against those found violating the kite-flying ban.

A notification has also been issued in this regard. Ms Nawaz has sought a report from Punjab IGP on the death of a youth due to kite flying in Faisalabad. She directed him to submit the report within 48 hours after identifying the elements responsible for the death of an innocent youth.

IGP directs officers to show zero-tolerance

“Despite imposition of a ban on kite flying under the Punjab Prohibition of Kite Flying Ordinance 2001, such occurrences across Punjab are highly deplorable and a crackdown must be launched on those found involved in committing violation of the kite-flying ban,” the CM said.
