In an order issued on Tuesday, Sonika Singh, chairperson of the Delhi Disaster Management Authority (east district), said the market association and shopkeepers in main bazaar, Laxmi Nagar were unable to ensure Covid protocols (compliance) on last Sunday (June 27) due to large footfall prompting the action to shut down the market.
The guidelines/directions of Covid protocol are being contravened in the Main Bazar, Laxmi Nagar which may cause super spreading of the corona virus. The Market Welfare Association of Main Bazaar, Laxmi Nagar has failed to ensure the strict compliance of guidelines of COVID-19, the order said.
To curtail the spreading of the virus in the larger interest of the public, it was necessary to take an immediate and stringent action , it added. The areas that will remain closed till July 5 include the Laxmi Nagar main market from Vikas Marg to Lovely Public School, Kisan Kunj, and its surrounding markets like Mangal Bazaar, Vijay Chowk, Subhash Chowk, Jagatram Park, Guru Ramdas Nagar.
The restrictions are applicable on all shops except those dealing in essential goods and services.
