A Pakistani minister’s reply on ongoing locust attack in Karachi is going viral. To deal with the problem he said, “Biryani bana sakte hai.”
Considered as pests that harm crops, millions of locusts have swarmed the city of Karachi in Pakistan. These insects were spotted hovering over the skies of Karachi recently.
Agitated by the same, people from Karachi have been posting many videos of the insects infiltrating the city. Going by the videos, it won’t be an exagerration to say that Karachi is under an attack from locusts.
Have a look at the bizarre situation:

But this all took a hilarious turn when Minister of Agriculture of Sindh, Ismail Rahoo suggested an abusrd solution to deal with the situation.
While netizens were annoyed with the locusts, the Minister of Agriculture of Sindh came up with a rather strange way to deal with the havoc. In a video going viral on the internet, Ismail Rahoo asked the citizens to cook the locusts, have it as a barbeque dish or biryani or kadhai.
