In the fresh guidelines issued for containment of COVID-19 in five districts – Gurugram, Faridabad, Sonipat, Hisar, Karnal and Panchkula, the state government has asked the Deputy Commissioners to consider to impose prohibitory orders under Section 144 of CRPC prohibiting the gatherings of more than four people, unless specifically permitted.
“All IT/ITES units and Corporate offices in these six districts shall operate their offices through work from home upto 3 May, 2021 at 9:00 AM,” the order said.
In indoor spaces, a maximum of 50% of the hall capacity will be allowed with a ceiling of 30 persons. This would also include all cinemas, theatres, multiplexes, bars, hotels, clubs and gyms.
The capacity of indoor places will be specified by the urban local bodies keeping in mind a calculated correlation between the number of chairs/seating or standing capacity and the covered area in sq. yards/sq. feet.
In open spaces, gatherings will be allowed with the ceiling of 50 persons.
The public should be advised to conduct marriages and other functions during day time only so as to avoid rush/traffic inconvenience at the time of commencement of Corona Curfew‘.
