Considering the risk of Covid-19 contagion in public places due to approaching festive season, Dehradun district magistrate, Ashish Kumar Srivastava directed sub-divisional magistrates (SDMs) and additional district magistrates (ADMs) to ensure implementation of Covid protocols by locals in their respective areas. He has ordered officials concerned to spread awareness among locals through awareness campaigns in public places, especially in vegetables and fruits wholesale market and main marketplaces.
Besides, he also directed pasting of posters in public transport vehicles and strict action against those who neglect wearing masks or maintaining physical distancing in public transports like three-wheelers and city buses. He also asked officials to ensure sanitisation of public places including shopping malls, vegetable market and hotels as these places tend to be more crowded during the festive season.
