Even when nine patients have been tested positive in the area, residents of Adarsh Bijasan Nagar in Pardeshipura, continued their get together and even continued to play cards at the gully corner.
Moreover, tall claims of the administration to seal the containment areas immediately after getting positive patients too fell flat when no barricading was done in the area till evening and also no team of doctors or administration reached there.
“Even before anyone tested positive, residents were continuously buying vegetables, tobacco and other products and even meeting with each other like nothing has happened and there is no dear of COVID-19,” one of the resident, who was kept in quarantine centre, said.
Similarly, three people of the family in Banganga area were tested positive but they were in contact with about 15-17 people living in the same building and using common toilet. However, administration didn’t reach there to send them in quarantine or collected their samples yet.
