AGRA: Notwithstanding Prime Minister Narendra Modi ’s appeal to remain indoors on Sunday as part of a “Janta curfew” to curb the spread of coronavirus , over 500 women protesters continued their sit-in against the CAA in Aligarh’s Shah Jamal Idgah ground According to administrative officials, the women, who have been sitting on dharna since January 29, are not maintaining social distance . The situation could be serious if any infected person comes in contact with them.The district administration had served a notice to the organisers two days ago asking them to vacate the place for 10 days amid coronavirus fears or face legal action. However, neither the protestors nor the organizers have paid heed to it. In fact, the number of protesters increased on Sunday.Talking to TOI, DM CB Singh, said that they are observing the situation. “Action will be taken against them,” he said. Luckily, so far, there has not been a single positive case of Covid-19 in Aligarh, he added.What worries, besides the defiance of the protesters in these times or crises, is their ignorance about the disease. One of the protesters said that they will not leave the protest site as “this corona is nothing more than the cold and cough problem and the government is creating fear to end their protest”.While remaining parts of the city, including Muslim dominated areas, Jeevangarh, Jamalpur and Upper Kot, followed the appeal of the PM in self imposed curfew.The administration has meanwhile decided to restrict the entry of people from Delhi, Noida, Agra and Mathura to Aligarh by screening them. Anyone asymptotic to the disease will not be allowed to enter the city, the DM said."Munadi" was also conducted by the Municipal corporation officials to urge people to stay indoors to combat spread of Covid -19. Confirming this, Municipal Corporation sanitary enforcement inspector Bishan Singh, said it was organised in seven zones on Sunday to make people aware.
