Amid a spurt in Covid cases, Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh today authorised deputy commissioners to impose new and harsher restrictions, as needed, within their respective districts, but made it clear no dilution of the existing curbs would be allowed, except for opening of non-essential shops and private offices on rotation.
He also directed DGP Dinkar Gupta to strictly enforce the weekend lockdown in the state and deal stringently with any violations in view of the Kisan Sangharsh Morcha’s anti-lockdown agitation tomorrow.
