میں اپنے والد محمد نواز شریف کی ہدایت پر انشاء اللہ کل یہ التجا لے کر اپنی بہنوں اور بھائیوں کے پاس جا رہی ہوں کہ وہ اپنے پیاروں کی میتیں اللہ کے حوالے کردیں۔ مجھے یقین ہے وہ اپنی بیٹی کی درخواست رد نہیں کریں گے۔

Prime Minister Imran Khan while confirming his visit to Quetta to meet the bereaved families the previous day, urged the Hazara community to bury the killed miners.

It may be noted that the Hazara community and Shia groups expanded their protest sit-ins in Karachi and Quetta against the Machh tragedy.

Eleven miners of the Shia Hazara community were brutally killed before dawn on Sunday while they were asleep near a remote coal mine in the mountainous area of Machh in Balochistan.

The sit-ins are likely to continue until the main protest being staged by members of the Hazara community on Quetta’s Western Bypass near Hazara Town ends.
