Roadside textile shops outside E.K.M. Abdul Gani textile market at Panneerselvam was allowed to function from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. as the corporation warned off action against shopkeepers if they violated the norms. Shops at the daily textile market function on all days in a week while the weekly textile market functions from Monday night and closes by Tuesday night. Due to COVID-19 pandemic, the weekly markets were allowed to function only during the day time and hence all the shops were functioning adhering to the norms. As a precaution against increasing positive cases, the district administration had announced regulations by allowing shops to function only from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Also, shops in crowded areas were asked to be closed during the weekends. On August 10, corporation officials along with police personnel removed roadside shops that opened before 6 a.m. Despite textile shop owners being asked to function only from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m., violating shopkeepers were imposed fine and warnings were issued.More Related News
