by Khalid Bashir Gura SRINAGAR: As Kashmir valley braces for a third lockdown from Thursday evening owing to the rising Covid-19 cases, the civil society at large is suggesting various measures to contain the raging contagion while keeping a complete lockdown strategy as the last measure. The 84-hour lockdown will be the third consecutive since reading of Article 370 on August 5, 2019. Dr Suhail Naik, President Doctors Association Kashmir (DAK) said Section 144 is better with people adhering to Covid-19 appropriate behaviour rather than locking people down. “People can still flatten the curve if they wear masks and sanitize hands which people generally do,” Dr Naik said adding that people should avoid all sorts of gatherings and go for vaccination en masse.
