The revised government order says the equipment at gyms shall be sanitised after every use. BENGALURU: The Karnataka government on Sunday relaxed norms for gym operators allowing them to function with 50% occupancy, only two days after all gyms were ordered closed in the wake of rising Covid-19 cases. "A number of representations were received by the chief minister to relax the restriction with certain conditions... It is now decided that gyms will be allowed to remain open with the condition that the occupancy at any time cannot exceed 50% of the capacity," the Sunday order issued by chief secretary P Ravi Kumar reads.
