While the resurgent spread of the raging coronavirus pandemic has been quite severe throughout the country including Tamil Nadu, the lockdown, imposed since last March (2020) has continued for several months. However, this lockdown imposed in March 2020 was gradually relaxed in subsequent phases as the corona spread came under control and were fading away. Normal life almost returned for the public! The relaxations were made further permitting 100% audience in the cinema theatres in several states - however, with the recent resurgence of the coronavirus pandemic, an order has been reimposed to permit only 50% audience – this has shocked the public!
The fact is that during the last few weeks, the extent of the coronavirus resurgence has increased manifold! In the state of Maharashtra the speed of the coronavirus spread has shot up like a rocket! As such, the State Government of Maharashtra has recently ordered that only 40% audience will be permitted in the film theatres!
The State Government of Maharashtra has also restricted that only 50% of the employees must be allowed to work in private offices!
