To stop
the growing cases of COVID-19 in Punjab, the State Government today issued a
new directive. As per a statement issued by the Punjab Chief Minister, Captain
Amarinder Singh, new rules have been implemented by the Punjab Government to
curb the spread of coronavirus in the state.
Stepping
up its fight against coronavirus, the government of Punjab published its
revised guidelines, completely banning public meetings and limiting social
gatherings to five attendees and weddings and other functions to 30, which was
earlier 50. The government has also urged the police to register FIR against
those who violate the curbing of public meetings.
The revised
guidelines derived the day after Chief Minister of Punjab Captain Amarinder Singh declared
the imposition of more stringent curbs in the wake of the increasing
coronavirus cases in the state.
“To prevent this
epidemic from spreading further, we must become responsible citizens and follow
all the instructions and rules,” Captain Amarinder Singh.
Punjab
government issued a comprehensive notification that states that joint police
force and civil administration teams should strictly enforce restrictions on
social gatherings according to section 144 which has been imposed in all
districts of Punjab, as well as marriages and social functions.
