Stall activities until Corona subsides: Tony to pol parties

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Apr 21: Member DDC Suchetgarh Taranjit Singh Tony, who acted as Convener of DDC Members’ Forum of J&K, today appealed all the DDC members and political leaders of various political parties to observe social distancing norms and cooperate with the Government in checking the unprecedented surge of Coronavirus especially on account of advent of second wave in J&K.
In a statement issued here, he urged political parties, social organizations and individuals to follow the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) set in by the Government and maintain social distancing without any lethargy or laxity. He said that all political parties should become politically dormant as long as the lethal Coronavirus is in the air as saving the lives of people is more important than anything else. He said that no individual should be allowed to take liberties as far as obeying the corona guidelines are concerned.
Taking a valid stand, Tony said that onus of controlling transmission of Coronavirus entirely lies on the public as the Government can only suggest measures but the responsibility of implementation is on people. He appealed the people not to take coronavirus lightly as almost every household has seen the impact of this disease in one way or the other.
