Bengaluru, May 19: In the wake of assurance by Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa to look into their demands, hotels and restaurants in Karnataka today decided to continue takeaway services for three more days.
Hotels were also exempted from the total lockdown on Sundays in Karnataka - under the state guidelines issued for Lockdown 4.0.
The Karnataka Pradesh Hotel and Restaurants' Association (KPHRA) had earlier threatened to stop takeaway services over refusal to allow dine-in facility in the fourth phase of the lockdown.
B Chandrashekar Hebbar, president of KPHRA said that the CM urged hoteliers to wait for three days, assuring that a decision will be taken.
"We appraised the government over the mounting losses by keeping just take-away services open. Noting that social distancing and other guidelines will be followed, we urged him to allow dine-in facility," he said.
The Association will wait three more days before discontinuing parcel services, Hebbar said.
The government also provided relaxation to hotels from the total lockdown announced in Karnataka on Sundays, he said.
A package for hotel employees such as cooks and waiters, along the lines of those announced for farmers, cab drivers and weavers, was also sought in a petition submitted to the chief minister.
In fact the state government had expressed its willingness to open hotels under the Lockdown 4.0, subject to restrictions. However, the central guidelines do not allow dine-in services.

No one will believe how pure this sanhgi group is. Before fingering opponent first look at your own colar.
Your present leader BSY is the number one corrupt and already stayed in priosn house.
If your group have full confindense then remove EVM voting system and advise irani shah to conduct voting by Ballot system. Sure not a single seat will win by any corrupt criminal groups.
Jai Hind !
