‘Kite-flying a dangerous activity’

‘Kite-flying a dangerous activity’: Spokesman for Chief Minister Punjab Dr Shehbaz Gill Tuesday said the government had launched a crackdown on kite flying. He stated this while visiting the residence of 22-year-old Muhammad Waqas of Khalidaabad, Faisalabad, who had died when a string of a stray kite slashed his throat when he was moving on a motorcycle. Gill said the government imposed a ban on kite-flying, therefore, strict action would be taken against all those involved in manufacturing kite-flying material, its storage, transportation, sale and purchase.
