Owing to a high number of per-day cases in districts like Cuttack, Khorha, Jaipur, and Ganjam, the authorities have decided to enforce a lockdown of 14 days. People will be allowed to buy groceries from 6 am to 1 pm but under strict social distancing norms. RBI, ATM’s, financial markets, and other payment systems will remain operational but with minimum staff. People are supposed to follow rules pertaining to the lockdown and any violation will attract punishment under Section 51 to 60 of the Disaster Management Act, 2005. Also, legal action will be taken under Section 1BB of the Indian Penal Code. Apart from these any violation applicable under Epidemic Diseases Act, 1897 will also be charged on the offender. The decision for enforcing a lockdown in these regions came after it was observed that more than 66% of cases were from these regions.
