Doda:DD, Deputy Commissioner Doda, Harvinder Singh, on Saturday said that restrictions on gatherings remain in place across the district while schools are expected to reopen from Monday following safety inspections.
Speaking to media persons, DC Harvinder, said, “Restrictions under Section 163, which prohibit the assembly of more than five to six persons, continue across the district.”
“A clear message has been conveyed that people should only step out to buy essentials and return home, avoiding any attempt to gather unnecessarily.”

These inspections will be completed by tomorrow evening, and from Monday we will be able to see children going back to school safely.”
DC also cautioned against fake news. “We are receiving inputs about misinformation being spread. I appeal to everyone, especially parents, to guide children not to pay attention to fake news.”
