Daijiworld Media Network – Udupi

Udupi, Jun 21: After considering the weekly moving average positivity rate as on June 20, lockdown restrictions have been relaxed in Udupi district from Monday June 21.

After the Unlock 2.0 regulations and districts were announced by chief minister (CM) B S Yediyurappa, many had urged for the inclusion of Udupi in the list. Udupi MLA Raghupati Bhat and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje had also urged the CM to relax lockdown restrictions in Udupi earlier.

Hence, taking into account the consistent declining trend of cases in Udupi and five other districts namely Bengaluru rural, Shivamogga, Ballari, Chitradurga and Vijayapura, all additional activities are permitted until 5 am of July 5, said an order from the state government.

All the shops and business activities will be allowed to operate from 6 am to 5 pm with this order. This includes table serving in restaurants and hotels with 50% occupancy, buses can be operated with 50% occupancy and many other relaxations which are given to category 1 districts.

MP Shobha, earlier in the day speaking to media had said, “Udupi district should be unlocked. I have spoken to the state chief secretary in this connection. I have also spoken to the deputy commissioner and gathered details. I will explain the conditions of Udupi district to the chief minister.

“The chief secretary will obtain the health report of Udupi. Trade and business has remained stagnant in the coastal districts. I will request to relax the lockdown restrictions completely,” she said.

    Merely opening up without plan for ICMR prediction of 3rd wave in 8 weeks will be distrous, fortunately during first wave God miraculously brought down covid during monsoon let's pray for the same.

    If YEDIYURAPPA is continuing, then it is better that Shobhakka should contest from DK , so our district will get more benefits.

    So number game is like snake and ladder game? It shows fudge the data to gain? This proves it's a game played by politicians and nothing to do with infections. D K MLA s showed their incompetence and helplessness to stop unscientific lockdown measures and protocols for an illness that is nothing but seasonal flu or cold virus infection. Better resign and save their faces, hope they don't come begging for our votes next time. Only people can stop this as politicians have thick skin and have taken voters for granted.

    Why all this drama? Today most of the private office's wer open with full AC on. DK is enjoying it's complete relaxation. Very soon infection will spread again. It's like beralu kotre kai nungudu. If you give little relaxation also everyone will misuse it. And we know only to blame administration. If we cooperate properly by following the rules surely we would have relaxed by May month end.
