As advised by the State Government, the Koraput district administration has allowed opening of 10 dhabas (roadside eateries) and tyre repairing shops along the highways for smooth movement of trucks carrying essential commodities during the coronavirus lockdown period.
While dhabas would provide packed cooked foods to drivers and helpers, the tyre repairing shops would remain open to check pressure in tyres and repair punctured tyres.
Dhaba owners have been asked to engage fewer number of workers and to maintain hygienic conditions. Besides, they have been asked to avoid congregation of any degree and not to supply food to any other people.
