The Hindu
They will be open from noon to 10 p.m.
The Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation Limited (Tasmac) on Friday said its shops would revert to pre-COVID-19 timings — noon to 10 p.m. — with immediate effect. Prior to the announcement, the outlets were operating from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
In a circular sent to all senior regional managers and district managers, L. Subramanian, managing director, Tasmac, said COVID-19 protocols should be followed.
Following the announcement, many workers felt keeping the outlets open till 10 p.m. was not a good idea. D. Dhanasekaran, general secretary of the Tasmac Workers’ Association, pointed out that the risk of disease transmission was yet to subside, and the news about the new variant of the novel coronavirus, Omicron, was also worrying.
