Noida eases corona curfew restrictions, allows optical shops to open with COVID protocols

Gautam Buddh Nagar Opticals' Association told the district administration that people are facing trouble due to the closure of optical shops.

New Delhi: The Gautam Buddh Nagar administration on Wednesday (June 2) allowed optical shops to open with certain conditions in Noida and Greater Noida. These shops do not come under essential service category and hence, were closed since the corona curfew.  The decision was taken following a request by the Gautam Buddh Nagar Opticals' Association to the district administration where they said people are facing trouble due to the closure of optical shops. The staff and owners in containment zones will not be allowed to enter the shops.  Additional District Magistrate (ADM) Vandita Shrivastava said in an order, “Shop owner or staff from containment zone would be barred from entering the shops.”
