Prohibitory orders were issued on Tuesday in the union territory of Daman, Diu and Dadra and Nagar Haveli (DNH) in wake of a spike in coronavirus cases.
“Active Covid-19 cases have been rising over the past few weeks in neighbouring states of Maharashtra and Gujarat.
It is imperative that strict and intensified measures need to be undertaken with immediate effect in order to prevent and further contain the spread of the Covid-19 in the Daman district,” the UT administration’s order reads.
The orders were issued by Daman collector Dr Rakesh Minhas restricting public gathering to below five persons in public places, with exemption to activities like essential and medical services, delivery of food items and industrial workers commuting for shift duties among others.
