They are protesting that they have come from far and wide to get vaccinated but the vaccines are not being given. Protesters pelted stones at the center and blocked the road.

District Health Officer Zaeem Zia said that the rush at the vaccination center suddenly increased due to people coming from other cities. Under COVID-19 SOPs, not everyone can be allowed in at once. Hence, the main entrance to F-9 Park was closed.
