Summary The sale of fireworks material in Multan has increased ahead of Shab-e-Barat.
The Multan Police have turned a blind eye towards the open sale of fireworks material despite several incidents of explosions.The vendors are openly selling the material in bazars and it is also being prepared in the thickly populated areas of the city and hoards of the fireworks material have been stocked in the walled city.Meanwhile, material is also supplied to different cities of the South Punjab from Multan.Some days back, a police check post was damaged and a police official Khadem Hussain was killed after fireworks material blasted.Police are taking no action against the people involved in this illegal business.The citizens have appealed to the Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif to take notice of this.
