Respected Sir,
Though Health Ministry and Department of Personal and Training have issued advisories to follow certain preventive measures to fight against Corona Virus which is spread in various parts of the country. But in some Departments still instructions issued by Health Ministry and DOPT are not being followed.
Some of the Departments who deal with the public directly it is very difficult to maintain social distancing.
It is therefore, requested very kindly , like school, Colleges and other working sectors, Govt. Offices should also be closed temporarily till the normalcy restores. It will be very much helpful to stop spread of Corona which is a pandemic.
An early action is highly solicited.
With profound regards.
