Kundapur, Mar 25: "As the cases of Covid-19 infections are rising further, stringent safety measures are being undertaken. Already three educational institutions in the district are found to have coronavirus infection. Suitable action is taken to prevent this infection from spreading. The Deputy Director of Public Instruction (DDPI) and  Deputy Director of Pre-University Board (DDPU) have been informed to take precautions to prevent the incidents of coronavirus in educational institutions. If violation of coronavirus protocol is found in educational institutions, suitable action will be taken on headmaster or principal," said G Jagadeesha, DC of the district.

Speaking to the media here on Thursday, March 25 the DC said, "It is important to give stress to online classes over offline. But as exams are underway now, we need to take precautions. We have already held campaigns to create awareness among the public to wear masks, maintain social distance and slap a fine if the coronavirus protocol is violated. As of now, there are no plans to announce lockdown. If violation of coronavirus norms or gathering of more people than specified is seen, strict action will be taken on the violators."

"Coronavirus guidelines are to be followed compulsorily in temples. Kollur temple fair will take place with religious rituals. There is no opportunity for devotees to partake in the festivity," Jagadeesha said.

"District administration is prepared to deal with the situation even if 400 cases of infection are reported every day. A good response has been witnessed in the administration of vaccines in the district," he added.

    That even after a year the government which supposed have in place evrything neeed to have to contain this pandemic is clueless. Udupi DC is behaving just as he used to behave in the same time last year. Government has just absolved itself from responsiblity. No data of efficacy of vaccine. There is executive excess everywhere. Firstly the DC has to ensure that everyone from the government werars masks. Then they can enforce with the citizens later. Revenue authorities should learn to behave properly with citizens.

    Nobody is following Covid 19 rules and regulations. DC has banned huge public gatherings. But what about schools majority of the schools are not following COVID safety protocols. Children are made to crowd together without masks in classrooms and halls. Neither students or teachers are wearing masks. No sanitization anywhere in schools. So what is the DC and the state administration doing about this. Where are the so called education and medical special advisory teams who were pushing for schools to reopen. Covid is spreading right in our schools.Education Minister is not bothered or doesn't have any idea what to do. Students lives are precious.
