Under the phased unlock process, the Arvind Kejriwal-led Delhi government had allowed several activities including markets, malls and market complexes to reopen while maintaining protocol and strict compliance with COVID-appropriate behavior.
Earlier this week, in the order issued by the Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA), marriages have also been permitted at banquet halls and other halls with maximum of 50 persons. As per the guideline, owners of banquet halls, marriage halls, hotels and gymnasiums/yoga institutes shall be responsible for ensuring strict compliance of COVID-19 appropriate behaviour in their premises.
Cinema, theatres, spas, schools, colleges and educational institutes will continue to remain closed in the national capital.
Restaurants up to 50 per cent capacity and markets have already been allowed to open. After a surge in April-May, Delhi’s new coronavirus cases continue to decline. In the last 24 hours, the city recorded 101 cases and four fatalities. It is after three days that Delhi’s single-day Covid tally breached the 100-mark, a day after reporting the lowest tally of the year — 59 — on Monday. The national capital had reported 85 new cases on Sunday and 89 cases on Saturday.
The Delhi government imposed a lockdown in the national capital on April 19 at the peak of the second wave of COVID-19. After a continuous decline in daily coronavirus cases for several days, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal announced a phased unlocking process from May 31.
