KATHMANDU: The prohibitory order currently enforced in Kathmandu Valley will be extended yet again.
A ‘virtual’ discussion between the Chief District Officers (CDOs) of all the three districts in the Kathmandu Valley on Tuesday formed a common view on extending the order in the wake of an alarming rise in coronavirus cases.
However, many restrictions will be eased this time.
The PCR test will now be mandatory for employees and laborers employed in the construction and industry sectors.
Similarly, those in the home delivery service through the e-commerce service provider will be allowed to work only if the PCR report is negative. For that, details have to be submitted to the local administration.
Only essential items will be included in the home delivery service and homework is being done to maintain the distance without meeting the person directly during the delivery process.
The joint forum of e-commerce entrepreneurs has issued a press release on Tuesday, stating that it will resume services from Wednesday.
