New Delhi: Because Delhi honed the “yellow” warning on Tuesday to load the spread of Covid-19 cases, the owner of the gym and the coach called the decision to close this fitness facility “death warrant”, added that it would lead to a big hole in the pocket and broke industry.
By stating that this industry has not recovered from previous losses, they said this industry has struggled to survive since the first closing due to last year’s pandemic.
The government can consider the total number of Covid cases in a facility, or limit the number of members in the centers, they argue.
“This decision has come as a letter of death for us.
It will fully destroy the fitness industry that has struggled,” said Chirag Setyi, Vice President of the Delhi Gym Association, an umbrella gym body in the city.
“All the gym owners have been under the burden of paying older rental debts, and fixed electricity costs and other costs.
Now with this decision, we will be pushed into bankruptcy,” he added.
National capital has more than 5,500 fitness centers and fitness centers.
Urging the government to reconsider the decision, Sethi said the gym was always the first entity to be closed and the last one opened.
“The gym owner has suffered a lot because of the previous closure.
We urge for government support.
We ask Delhi Disaster Management Authority to reconsider the decision,” he added.
The sports owner also claims that the fitness center is the softest target.
“While the fitness center is closed, the salon is not closed.
It makes no sense.
We can reduce the number of visitors or give them a different time slot.
We are not a big brand.
Where are we going and how we will pay our coach?” Asked Pawan Singh, The owner of the bodyshaper gym in New Ashok Nagar.
