Home-delivery employees need to get vaccinated, failing which the delivery person will be fined Rs 1,000 and the company Rs 10,000.
These new restrictions will come into effect from Monday 8 pm and will be called ‘Break the Chain‘ instead of ‘Mission Begin Again‘, a campaign that was launched by the state government for phase-wise reopening of lockdown last year.
A decision to implement these restrictions was taken during the special meeting of the council of ministers chaired by Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray through video-conferencing on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Maharashtra, on Sunday, reported the highest single-day rise of 57,074 coronavirus positive cases while 222 patients succumbed to the infection. With the addition of new infections, the overall tally in the state reached 30,10,597 while the death toll mounted to 55,878.
