Chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat is consistently monitoring the lockdown situation across the State. On Thursday, the Chief Minister talked on the phone to the district magistrates and enquiring about the situation, directed them to strictly enforce the lockdown. Rawat also said that while strictly enforcing the lockdown, the availability of essential services and goods must also be ensured. The citizens should be assured that there is no shortage of any essential commodity. The general public should be motivated to remain at home and maintain social distancing too, said Rawat.
At the Chief Minister’s residence, Rawat was updated about the situation in Dehradun by the district magistrate Ashish Kumar Srivastava and the deputy inspector general/senior superintendent of police Arun Mohan Joshi. He directed the officers to monitor the situation with full alertness and to take every necessary step to deal with the situation.
