Here is the guest limit for weddings in different districts across Haryana:
Indoor Weddings
A gathering of 50 people allowed in Gurugram, Faridabad, Rewari, Rohtak, Panipat and Hisar districts.
In other districts, a gathering of 100 people will be allowed.
Outdoor Weddings
100 people can gather in Gurugram, Faridabad, Rewari, Rohtak, Panipat and Hisar districts.
While 200 people will be allowed in other districts.
The guidelines will be effective from November 26 as informed by the Haryana CM.
Meanwhile, on Monday, Haryana reported another big spike of 2,663 fresh coronavirus cases taking the caseload in the state to 2,19,963 and with 28 more fatalities, the COVID-19 related death toll rose to 2,216.
