West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday announced that night curfew will remain in force between 10 pm and 5 am, instead of current 9 pm to 5 am, during the extended coronavirus lockdown till July 31.
She also said she wants the metro services to resume from July 1, but only with 100% seat occupancy, and no passenger standing.
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had earlier extended the lockdown in the state till July 31. “Political rallies cannot be allowed during this time but some parties are holding rallies without police permission. Some parties are breaking the law and shouting why police cases are being registered. They are using provocative language. Freedom of speech is present but maintaining it is important,” she said addressing a press conference.
Speaking about her party’s Martyr’s Day rally on July 21, Banerjee said it would be observed, but in a much different way. SUS PNT SMN TIR TIR.
