Mysuru: The office-bearers of Federation of Organisations and Associations of Mysuru (FOAM) urged the state government and the district administration to withdraw the weekend curfew as it is affecting business and the livelihood of thousands of families.
Speaking to reporters, federation president BS Prashanth said these restrictions are not helping other states in containing the spread of the infection.
“Every department is issuing separate orders. We are confused about which one to follow. Already, due to the first and second wave lockdowns, thousands of families are facing financial crisis. If another lockdown is imposed, it will further affect them,” he stated.
“The government is creating confusion through so many orders at a time. We don’t know which one is correct,” said Prashanth.
“Due to the fear of lockdown and weekend curfew, we can see congestion in many places. Even the experts have made it clear that none of these measures are helpful in containing the spread of the infection. We must learn to live with this virus for a few more years,” he said.
“Fifty per cent occupancy order is not practical. The virus is not severe. The rules are violated by politicians every day. These unrealistic orders are affecting business badly,” said Prashanth. “People are attending rallies in a large numbers, but others are barred from having lunch in a hotel. What is the logic behind these orders,” asked federation vice president Narayana Gowda. TNN
