Summary:
Darjeeling: The tea gardens in the Darjeeling and Kalimpong Hills were shut down from Thursday. However, majority of the tea gardens in the plains of North Bengal continue to function. There was a lot of confusion regarding the fate of tea gardens in North Bengal during the ongoing lockdown. We thank the owners of the tea gardens for their concern. People who are returning to the tea gardens must go on compulsory self-quarantine at home for 14 days..
