He said that the state government was concerned about the health of residents and therefore directed that not more than 50 persons should be allowed in a worship centre across the state. “After the meeting with the bodies, the government has agreed that on no account should any of the religious groups gather more than 50 persons at a time.
He further said that “We have also made it known to them that they should try through other means to communicate to their members to try as much as possible to observe all the behaviours that we have rightly pointed out before now. “Everybody has to keep himself. First, social distancing was agreed upon and it is the most important aspect of it, at least six feet in between persons and no shaking of hands.
