Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan calls it ‘Corona Curfew’

Bhopal: Chief Minister Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that there is no lockdown but Corona curfew in the state. Make such a system, through which the work and livelihood of the people continues. Panchayats in villages and residents associations, mohalla committees in cities should form their own containment areas. People should not unnecessarily go out of the house. One or two people should go out and bring items of need for everyone. By maintaining this kind of restraint with self-motivation, we can control the Corona quickly. The chain of infection will be broken only through public awareness. Ministers should work dedicatedly in the districts under their charge. Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that all the districts have adequate beds, oxygen, remdisivir injection, medicines etc. for the treatment of Corona. There will be no shortage of money in Corona related arrangements.
