The Political Bureau of the Communist Party of Pakistan issued the following statement:
At the moment, the whole world is fighting Covid 19, but the Pakistani state is fighting its own organisation, the Tehreek-e-Lubaik Pakistan (TLP).
We have been demanding that the state change its statement. The state sometimes bans the Communist Party, sometimes nationalist organisations and sometimes religious organisations and adopts a violent path. But that doesn't fix the root cause. The Pakistani state suffers from many contradictions.
