West Bengal government has imposed strict lockdown throughout the state w.e.f. Sunday, 2021-05-16 to Sunday, 2021-05-30 to control the spread of Covid-19.
I have been receiving a lot of queries since Saturday about restrictions on movement in personal transport to Covid Vaccination Centres (CVC).
Alapan Banerjee, IAS, Chief Secretary of West Bengal has confirmed at a press meet while announcing the lockdown on Saturday, 2021-05-15 that CVCs will operate as usual and beneficiaries will be allowed to proceed to vaccination centres in personal vehicles for the much needed vaccination. He spelled it out in no uncertain terms.
Moreover, he has announced that almost all government and private offices will be closed and so will all educational institutions.
Movement of intra-state buses, local trains, taxis, AppCabs, autoricshaws are totally banned and so are movements of personal vehicles without valid reasons. Only vehicles carrying essential items and/ or engaged in healthcare duties will be allowed.
Bazaars, grocery, milk and dairy outlets will be open from 7 am to 10 am. Pharmacy outlets and opthalmologists will remain open according to their usual business hours. E-commerce deliveries will happen as usual. Sweetmeat shops will operate from 10 am to 5 pm.
