Delhi To Further Ease Restrictions From Tomorrow Amid Drop In Covid Cases

Weekly markets have also been allowed but with 50 per cent vendors and only market one per day will function in each municipal zone.

The restrictions for shops, malls and restaurants in Delhi will be eased from tomorrow as Covid numbers in the capital drop to a two-month low. Shops will be open seven days a week instead of the current odd-even system. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, however, said this will be on trial basis for a week and strict action will be taken if the Covid numbers rise. The shop timings will remain same -- from 10 am to 8 pm, Mr Kejriwal said. Restaurants will be allowed to open, but with 50 per cent of seating capacity. Weekly markets have also been allowed but with 50 per cent vendors and only market one per day will function in each municipal zone.
