Awasthi declaring selected hotspots in 15 districts in the state will be sealed.In a press conference, the two officials confirmed that curfew-like measures will be implemented in these hotspot areas, and clarified that normal lockdown measures will be there in other areas.People rushed out of their homes, forgetting the social distancing request earlier made by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi when he had announced the lockdown on March 24, to stock up on groceries and essential items.To avoid the panic situation among people, the Gautam Buddha Nagar District Magistrate requested people not to panic and assured them that the government will provide essential goods to them."Dear residents, no need for panic buying. Identified Hot spots shall be sealed and home delivery of essential commodities and services shall be available at all places in the district. We shall take strict action against rumour mongers and spreaders."While announcing sealing of hotspots, the Uttar Pradesh government also announced that media will not be allowed to visit in those hotspot zones and interconnected 'mohalla' visits will also be stopped to maintain social distancing to contain the spread of the deadly disease.( With inputs from IANS )
