Amarinder orders night curfew from Saturday in Ludhiana, Jalandhar and Patiala

Chandigarh, Aug 7 (UNI) Concerned over the rising number of Covid cases in the state, Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh has ordered night curfew from 2100 hrs to 0500 hrs in the worst affected cities of Ludhiana, Jalandhar and Patiala from Saturday, while directing all big cities/towns to prepare integrated management plan for treatment of the disease at both government and private facilities.
As cases in the state went up to 20,891, with 1050 instances reported on one day on Thursday, the Chief Minister also announced a week-long trial of enforcement of the mandatory mask wearing rule by making offenders stand at the spot for an hour with a mask on.
He was of the view that making the offenders sweat it out might help check the violations on this count, which had crossed 3.82 lakhs.
