Recent reports claiming that the federal government has announced a nationwide “smart lockdown” combined with stricter austerity measures are false.
No official notification or directive has been issued regarding lockdowns, market closures, remote work mandates, or curbs on energy use, top officials confirmed to ProPakistani.
Despite claims that government offices would adopt hybrid work with digital attendance monitoring, private offices would face remote work mandates, and public buildings would shift to solar power, no such measures have been finalized or announced.
Sources added that all citizens are advised to rely on official sources for updates. Pakistan has not declared a smart lockdown, and any reports suggesting otherwise are misleading, so far.
