Economic activities to be allowed from Monday: Kejriwal

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has said different economic activities will be allowed in the UT from May 18 based on decisions taken by the Centre on relaxation. In a media briefing on Thursday, Kejriwal said most people suggested that schools, colleges, barber shops, spa, saloons, cinema halls and swimming pools should not be opened post May 17, and there should be just limited operation of metro services. Kejriwal had sought suggestions from Delhiites on lockdown relaxations post May 17 and asked them to send their views by 5 pm on Wednesday. Buses, taxis and autorickshaws should be allowed to operate in the city but with social-distancing, Kejriwal said. Kejriwal said his government wants to send a proposal to the Centre by Thursday evening on lockdown relaxations post May 17.
