Mumbai: In the midst of the concern of the third wave of Coronavirus and a very contagious ‘Delta Plus’ variant case appeared in Maharashtra, the state tightened restrictions on the effects of Monday, with important shops permitted to keep open until 4pm.
Not important stores and companies can remain open until 4pm only on weekdays, in accordance with the Notification of the Maharashtra government issued last week which said the entire country would have a ‘level 3’ limit.
Restaurants are permitted to operate dinner facilities with a capacity of 50 percent to 4pm on weekdays and takeaways and shipping houses after that, according to the order.
Suburban trains will only operate for medical staff and personnel involved in important services, while the fitness center and salon are allowed to remain open until 4pm with a capacity of 50 percent.
The New Order will affect cities such as Nagpur, Thane and Pune because they have seen more relaxation than Mumbai, who continue to undergo ‘level 3’ limit, despite eligible for ‘level 1’ where all sidewalks are allowed to be lifted.
The State Government on Friday announced ‘state-level triggers’ for imposing restrictions on administrative units regardless of the weekly and the percentage of oxygen beds.
The weekly level of peposititivity regarding the limitation rate will be determined based on the RT-PCR test, and not a fast antigen or other tests, the state government says while describing the ‘Delta Plus’ as a concerned variant.
The administrative unit restriction will remain at a level that is not below 3, the government said, and also asked to encourage 70 percent vaccination of the population that qualified in the state.
Earlier this month, the state government has introduced multilevel systems to relieve sidewalks such as locking in each district, given the covid-19 weekly front level and occupancy of oxygen beds.
District and city companies are then classified below levels 1 to 5.
Therefore, several cities and districts in the Marathwada area and Vidarbha have raised the limits and some are on ‘level 2’.
However, last week, the Maharashtra government modified a multilevel system and said the entire country would have a ‘level 3’ limit.
The district administration has been asked to take various steps, including testing, vaccination, and enforcing the right behavior and penalty for violators.
If there is a trend in the increase in the number of positive cases of Coronavirus, the District Disaster Management Authority will force a higher level limitation, the command word.
Efforts must be made to reach 70 percent of population vaccinations that meet the requirements and focus must be on the test, track and treat the methodology to contain the spread of Covid-19, said.
