The district administration has released guidelines for the funeral of those dying of COVID-19. If relatives are unwilling to take over the body, the secretary of the respective local body shall take up the responsibility. Hospitals have been directed to inform the police, local body secretary, and relatives of COVID-19 deaths. In the case of local bodies without crematoriums of their own, they could use the facilities under other local bodies in the same block, which the block panchayat secretary should facilitate.More Related News
