Gobind Singh Longowal, SGPC president, said special isolation wards would be set up in the Sri Guru Ram Das Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Amritsar and a dedicated team of doctors would be deployed to attend to Covid patients.

“Inns can be used to accommodate persons under quarantine. We have already tied up with health officials under whose guidance services will be offered. We have also decided to offer langar at places instructed by the district administration,” he said.

The SGPC has already started sanitising areas in and around the Golden Temple, inns and offices. It intends to suspend its Budget meeting. — TNS
