All the visitors to these Gardens & Parks are requested to follow Covid SOPs in letter and spirit.
However, the responsibility lies on the visitors to follow the covid appropriate behavior while they visit these gardens and parks and it is the responsibility of the authorities also to ensure that these places do not become the source of spread of covid-19 as there is a little surge in the covid positive cases here in the past two weeks.
People want to move out from their homes as they have seen long spells of lockdowns and it is good that they will visit gardens and parks but they must keep it in mind that they should not bring back home an infection like that of covid-19.
