The Brihanmumbai Mumbai Corporation on Thursday issued updated coronavirus-related guidelines amid a rise in daily cases in Maharashtra as reported 5,427 new cases.
After a gap of 75 days, the state reported more than 5,000 infections, according to PTI. It had reported 5,229 infections on December 4, which had been followed by a gradual drop in cases.
BMC Commissioner S Chahal said that buildings in the city will be sealed if there are more than five active cases. “Stamps will be put on back of the hands of the patients staying in home quarantine,” Chahal added. “300 marshals will be hired to keep an eye on people traveling in local trains without face mask. Besides, additional marshals will be hired to keep an eye on violators in Mumbai.”
