In a series of tweets, Maryam urged everyone to take precautionary measures, follow the medical guidelines and pray to Allah.

She also extended her heartfelt condolences to the families of those who have succumbed to the pandemic and earnest prayers for early recovery of the affected.

It is worth noting that Maryam has been facing severe criticism even by the die-hard supports of Nawaz over her silence after she was released from prison.

On the other hand, the opponents were claiming that it was a result of a “deal”.
