Telangana High Court tells government to prevent crowding during Vinayaka Chaviti

The Telangana High Court on Wednesday asked the state government to prepare a roadmap to face the possible resurgence of Covid-19 in the form of a third wave. A bench of High Court comprising Chief Justice Hima Kohli and Justice B Seshasayana Reddy desired that the roadmap should be based on the positivity trend and how the Medical and Health Department is able to rise to the occasion.

The bench asked the government to ensure that there would be no overcrowding at temples on Vinayaka Chaviti and other festivals in view of the possible resurgence of Covid-19.

Information about the curbs that would be in place should be disseminated to the people in advance, it said. The department was asked to submit affidavits with details of serosurvey reports and those pertaining to meetings of the panel formed to rein in Covid-19.

The Medical and Health Department submitted reports on measures taken to control the virus.
