Pune: Some malls in the city reopen their doors for customers on Monday, but the usual buzz is lost and so is the young crowd.
Because only visitors who have taken both vaccine doses allowed to enter the mall, many in the age group 18-45 years cannot visit their favorite places with most of them waiting for their second shot.
Children and teenagers, who are still out of ambit vaccination, cannot accompany their parents to the mall.
Zone game, which will always be full of chat before a pandemic, silence.
Security staff check the final vaccination certificate on the customer’s smartphone before giving them in.
“We are not allowed to enter the mall because we did not get our second dose.
This will mature in September,” said Suvarna Kharche, a 30-year-old visitor at Pavillion Mall, Senapati Bapat Road.
Abowa Agarwal (29), who was fully vaccinated last week and visited Amanora, said, “There was almost no crowd, but many shops were closed too.
But it was a good experience to sit and eat a snack on the food court after a long time.
Hopefully, all brand stores will be reopened in the next few days and ordinary buzz will be back.
“Surjit Singh Rajpurohit, Chief Operating Officer Amanora Mall, Magarpatta, said,” We love to reopen, even though the footsteps are far less than we are expect.
But more importantly, the staff is very happy to return to work.
“He added,” The Association of Indian shopping centers has written a letter to PMC to reconsider the guidelines and allow the entry of visitors in the 14-45 age group that has taken the first dose of vaccination.
Rules For only customers who are fully vaccinated do not apply to shops and other markets, but the mall must turn around big agian our customers because of this regulation.
“Vikas Ladhe, Head of the SGS Mall Center at Camp, said,” We train our staff and compile their vaccination data to ensure that the mall is safe for all.
Apart from the main main entrance, security staff will check the vaccination status of visitors at the roadside entrance by their telephone.
Visitors can also carry mold certificates that are fully vaccinated.
They also have to produce their aadhaar card for verification.
