Dairy, vegetable market and grocery store were not exempted in the guideline; was allowed in the first second wave

With the increase in Corona, the government has started increasing the restrictions. The flaws in the guidelines of restrictions issued on 9 January have started coming to the fore. In the new guideline, the government has made a provision to impose a complete curfew from 11 pm on Saturday night to Monday morning. Everything will be closed on Sunday. According to the new guideline, there is no permission to open milk dairy, fruit vegetable market in Sunday curfew. Whereas milk dairy, fruit-vegetable shops and grocery stores were allowed to open even in the strict lockdown of the first and second wave of Corona. According to the existing provision, neither milk nor fruits and vegetables will be available on Sunday curfew. For media persons also, the guideline does not mention the exemption of movement for coverage. It is mentioned every time in curfew or lockdown. Until the guidelines are amended, people are sure to face trouble in Sunday curfew.

Exemption to these 10 categories, these do not include milk dairy, fruit vegetable shops and media

On the day of Sunday curfew, 10 categories have been created which will be exempted, but in these there is no mention of milk dairy, dairy booth, fruit vegetable market and fruit vegetable shops. Factories where there is continuous production, factories with night shift, IT, telecom services, medical shops, wedding ceremonies, offices with emergency services will be exempted. Apart from this, passengers going to railway station, bus stand and airport along with all vehicles carrying goods will be exempted. Those coming for vaccination and offices related to medical services will also be out of the purview of curfew.

Street vendors, Thadi vendors are also not exempted

There is no provision in the guideline regarding street vendors, thri hawkers and hawkers who sell goods. These have also not been kept in the purview of exemption. There have been many flaws in the guidelines of Corona in the past as well. Even during the second wave of Corona, many times contradictory provisions were made regarding the marriage ceremony to various restrictions and exemptions. The government may soon issue a new guideline to rectify the shortcomings of the existing guidelines.
