New Delhi: The Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) on Friday lifted all restrictions, including night curfew, in the national capital from Monday (February 28, 2022) as the Covid-19 situation improves. The decision was taken in a DDMA meeting chaired by Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal and attended by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal along with experts and other officials.
“Accordingly, the Covid-19 situation in Delhi has been reviewed in the DDMA meeting... and it was observed that cases and positivity rate have declined significantly. Also, bed occupancy in hospitals is low and the situation has vastly improved. Therefore, it has been decided to remove all restrictions in Delhi,” the DDMA order said.
The DDMA said that the step has been taken to help people facing hardships due to loss of jobs. Several other curbs like weekend curfew, half seating capacity in metro trains and buses, closure of multiplexes and cinemas, among others, were already lifted by the Arvind Kejriwal-led government in the recent past.
Notably, the restrictions were put in place in December last year after the national capital witnessed an unprecedented surge in Covid-19 cases.
