Bengaluru, Jun 22: Concerned over the increase in COVID-19 cases in the city, Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Monday directed officials to implement lockdown measures strictly in the clusters which have reported more infections.
Yediyurappa held a meeting with Ministers and senior officials regarding containing COVID-19 in Bengaluru and said it can be achieved only if preventive measures are implemented strictly and asked the officials to work in this direction.
"Lockdown shall be implemented strictly in the clusters which reported more cases, especially, K.R. Market and surrounding areas such as Siddapura, VV Puram, Kalasipalya etc. It was decided to seal the adjoining streets, where the cases are reported, a release from the Chief Minister's office said. Stringent action would be taken against those who violate quarantine norms and FIR would be filed if necessary, it said.
Till Sunday evening, the state capital has reported 1,272 cases of COVID-19, including 64 deaths and 411 discharges. On Sunday, as many as 196 fresh cases were recorded. Officers were directed to ensure hygiene and provide other basic amenities to the people who were quarantined in the social welfare department's hostels and other government institutions.
"COVID-19 should be contained without affecting the economic activities in Bengaluru, which resumed recently," the Chief Minister said.
Noting that booth-level officers and volunteers were working to trace contacts and monitor quarantined persons, he said the COVID war room shall have real-time information on the availability of beds in various designated hospitals and facilitate treatment to the infected without loss of time.
A bulletin from the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), the city civic body, said there were 298 active containment zones in the city. BBMP Commissioner B H Anil Kumar along with the Chamarajpet Congress MLA B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan visited a few slum areas in the city to take stock of the COVID-19 situation, officials said.

Dear CD
Don't support by publishing un islamic topic from so called Muslim (Nawzbillah)
Beware of such people,
Our bellowed prophet peace be upon him, said anybody who lies as misquoting against him, shall reserve their place in hell.
We should ask him for authenticated proof, sure he will fail to do so, then people have to decide his fate on the grounds of sharia law.
Better change your name to Tarak Mehta :-)
Hello, who is this Tarek Fatah, Agent of RSS, what he know about Prophet Swallahu Alaihi wa sallim. Where is quoted beef is Haram in Qur'an or Hadith.
What he is talking even not veda, purana, ramayana or in Mahabharatha there is no single word against slaughtering cow. 10000 of cows and other animal slaughter in yaaga, yajna.
Prophet Muhammed peace be upon him Told be aware of MUNAFIQs like you . and also mentioned that the day will come when Ignorant will become leaders ......so you try to become......you are going against ISLAM by claiming something Haram when its allowed in ISLAM
May be one day you will say PIG also allowed....!!!
