To improve enforcement in containment zones and attain out to residents, the BMC has determined to nominate group leaders, corporators, native in style figures to behave as messengers and disseminate details about the novel coronavirus illness and bridge the communication hole amongst others.
In a video assembly on May 20, Municipal Commissioner I S Chahal directed the 24 ward officers to nominate ‘community leaders’ and arrange a warfare room on the native degree. “In smaller localities, people are engaged in social work and have knowledge of the area, and such people can be given the responsibilities as community leaders. They can be helpful especially in containment zones, like slums and buildings, where there are any cases or suspected cases, who could have come in their contacts… This would expedite the work of medical officers, healthcare workers. If people’s participation increases, then BMC’s measures can be implemented even more effectively,” Chahal mentioned. The leaders will even help in ration and meals distribution in slums. Till May 23, town has earmarked 659 containment zones and sealed 2,411 buildings.
