Chandigarh, June 25
A day after UT Adviser Dharam Pal asked officials to take against those violating Covid norms, more than 500 challans were issued in the city. As many as 55 challans were issued at Sukhna Lake.
Meanwhile, Deputy Commissioner Mandip Singh Brar today held a meeting with all SDMs to review the Covid arrangements in the city. The DC directed them to ensure strict compliance with Covid-appropriate behaviour in their respective areas.
The SDMs were further asked to depute incident commanders for issuing challans to those found without mask and not adhering to the Covid protocol. They were also asked to ensure that shop owners and their staff get themselves vaccinated. Market welfare associations can approach their area SDM if they intend to organise a vaccination camp in their markets provided the number of persons to be vaccinated is more than 100.
