The move comes amid fears of a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic in the country.Minister for Planning Asad Umar in a post on Twitter said that mini lockdowns have been imposed in some cities after &ldquo;positivity rate crossed 2 per cent after remaining below 2 per cent for six weeks&rdquo;.&nbsp;Positivity rate is the percentage of positive results out of the total number of tests sampled. On Sunday, Pakistan reported 666 new Covid-19 cases, taking the total number of infections to 318,932.

PTI,&nbsp;Islamabad: Pakistan has imposed mini smart lockdowns in several cities after a surge in the COVID-19 positivity rate, a senior minister said on Sunday, amid fears of a second wave of the coronavirus pandemic in the country.
On Sunday, Pakistan reported 666 new COVID-19 cases, taking the total number of infections to 318,932, according to the Ministry of National Health Services.
Minister for Planning Asad Umar in a post on Twitter said that mini lockdowns have been imposed in some cities after &ldquo;positivity rate crossed 2 per cent after remaining below 2 per cent for six weeks&rdquo;.
Positivity rate is the percentage of positive results out of the total number of tests sampled.
Mini smart lockdowns have been imposed in Karachi, Islamabad and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
"Instructions have been issued to administrations across the country to ensure that precautionary measures are followed. But like in the past, success is impossible without the cooperation of the people," he said in the tweet.
Education Minister Shafqat Mahmood also asked people to follow guidelines and avoid big gatherings.
"Large public gatherings must not take place. These alone can unleash a second wave," he said.
According to the health ministry, Punjab province on Sunday confirmed 203 new COVID-19 cases. It was for the first time since August 15 that Punjab recorded more than 200 cases.
Sindh reported 140,131 cases, Punjab 100,687, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa 38,329, Islamabad 17,296, Balochistan 15,520, Gilgit-Baltistan 3,924 and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir 3,045 cases.
The National Command and Control Centre (NCOC), the nerve centre to synergise and articulate unified national effort against COVID-19, on Thursday imposed restrictions on large-scale public gatherings in marriage halls after rise in the COVID-19 infections in recent weeks.
The restrictions have come ahead of a big rally announced by the opposition parties, under the banner Pakistan Democratic Movement, on October 16 at Gujranwala in Punjab province against the Imran Khan-led government.
However, the Opposition leaders have rejected the call to avoid big rallies.
&ldquo;Some weeks ago this government was taking credit for controlling the coronavirus but suddenly it started saying that it was getting out of control,&rdquo; Rana Sanaullah of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz earlier had said.&nbsp;

 Pak Opposition leader Shahbaz Sharif arrested

Pakistan's Leader of the Opposition Shahbaz Sharif was arrested on Monday after the Lahore High Court rejected his bail plea in a 41.9 million US dollar money laundering case.&nbsp;Shahbaz, the younger brother of former premier Nawaz Sharif, was taken into custody from the court's premises, where a large number of PML-N workers gathered ahead of the hearing. The Imran Khan government last week filed the money laundering case against 69-year-old Shahbaz, who served as chief minister of Punjab from 2008 to 2018, and his family.

PTI,&nbsp;Lahore:&nbsp;Pakistan's Leader of the Opposition and PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif was arrested on Monday after the Lahore High Court rejected his bail plea in a Rs 7 billion (USD 41.9 million) money laundering case.
Shahbaz, the younger brother of former premier Nawaz Sharif, was taken into custody from the court's premises, where a large number of PML-N workers gathered ahead of the hearing.
The country's anti-graft body National Accountability Bureau (NAB) took him to its Lahore's detention centre and will produce him to the accountability court for his physical remand.
The LHC's two-member bench headed by Sardar Ahemd Naeem rejected his bail after hearing the arguments from the NAB's team and Shahbaz's lawyer.
The Imran Khan government last week filed the money laundering case against 69-year-old Shahbaz, who served as chief minister of Punjab from 2008 to 2018, and his family.
Adviser to the Prime Minister on Interior and Accountability Shahzad Akbar on September 23 alleged that Shahbaz and his sons Hamza and Salman were involved in money laundering through fake accounts.
Akbar said the financial monitoring unit had detected 177 suspicious transactions of Shahbaz' family after which NAB started a probe.
He alleged that billions of rupees were laundered through employees of the companies owned by Shahbaz and his children.
Akbar accused Shahbaz and Hamza of taking kickbacks and commissions in return for party tickets and projects to favourites.
Before his arrest, Shahbaz told media that Prime Minister Khan wanted to have him arrested.
"It is the unholy alliance of Imran Khan and NAB that wanted to put me behind bars," Shahbaz said.
Reacting to his arrest, PML-N spokesperson Maryam Nawaz said Shahbaz has been arrested only because he did not leave his elder brother.
Alleging that it was a political victimisation by the government, she said, "This politics of vengence cannot dampen the spirits of our workers." PPP Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari condemned Shehbaz's arrest, saying that Prime Minister Khan was worried after the Opposition parties launched an alliance, Pakistan Democratic Movement, to oust the Imran Khan government.
The Opposition was anticipating strong reaction from the government following Nawaz Sharif's attack on the military in the multi-party conference over a week ago.
Sharif while addressing the conference via video link from London talked about the Army's involvement in politics, saying in the country "there is a state above the state." He said that the joint Opposition's struggle is not against Khan but against those who imposed an "inefficient" man on the nation through a rigged elections in 2018." The Opposition is anticipating more arrests. The NAB has already issued a call up notice to JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman who is also leading the joint opposition's campaign against the government in income beyond means case.&nbsp;
