Strictly adhere to COVID-19 norms, Uddhav tells film and television producers

Coordinate with police authorities on place of shoot and extension for timing, says Maharashtra CM

Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Saturday asked the film and television producers to strictly adhere to the COVID-19 norms laid down by the State government and coordinate with police authorities about the place of shoot as well as extension for timings. Mr. Thackeray held a virtual meeting with the members of film producers guild where he asked them to ensure norms are followed, crew members are vaccinated and routine tests for the virus are conducted. “We are not interested in restricting your work but we are witnessing cases in States like Maharashtra and Kerala. Therefore, COVID tests after regular intervals, hospitalisation of an individual with symptoms and most importantly vaccinating the person with both doses are extremely important.”
