The CM also questioned MLA Zameer Ahmed’s statement that residents should have been given notice o the authorities should have gone in the say time.

“Instead of saying that strict action should be taken against perpetrators, he is speaking like this. Can the government work according to him? Can we then believe that he had something to do with the incident?,” CM told mediapersons.

The health department said the area had reported 10 positive cases until 17 April, including seven people from a single building.
