DDMA meet today to decide lifting weekend curfew, reopening schools as Covid-19 cases decline in Delhi

 The Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) will meet today to review the pandemic situation in the city amid demands of lifting weekend curfew and odd-even rule for shops.

Delhi’s apex Covid-19 management body DDMA’s meeting is going to be chaired by Lt Governor Anil Baijal and is going to take place at 12:30 pm today. 

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is also likely to attend the meeting that will discuss relaxations that may be allowed in view of improvement in the Covid-19 situation in the Capital.

Last Friday, the Delhi government had proposed lifting the weekend curfew and ending the odd-even scheme for opening shops in the city as the Covid-19 situation improved but Lieutenant Governor Baijal suggested maintaining the status quo on the restrictions till the situation improved further.
