Markets will open in Jabalpur from today on Odd-Even formula, will have to follow the rules
Jabalpur. In Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, all the markets coming into the green zone are being opened on the basis of OD and EV formula. It starts with an odd number. Today, on the first day, the shops that have the numbers 1-3-5-7-9, will be opened and tomorrow the even number. In this order, shops will open one day in a day, in alternation.
The Collector sent a proposal for the Odd-Even formula to Bhopal. It was implemented as soon as it was approved. The markets of Jabalpur district were closed for 79 days due to the lockdown implemented to prevent infection of the corona virus. There is an exemption to open markets in 65 wards of the district on the lines of aud-even. While 14 wards are in the red zone, the markets will remain closed there. No economic activity will be allowed in these areas for the time being. Shops will remain open from 1 pm to 5 pm in the areas where the market is open from today. But from Saturday to Saturday, the shops will be open from 9 am to 5 pm.
The new rules will have to be strictly followed in the shops that open in the Green Zone. There, along with sanitation, more than 5 customers will not be allowed to be present at one time. Along with shopkeepers, it will also be mandatory for customers to wear masks. Wherever these rules are not followed, the approval to open the market will be withdrawn. With this, if a corona-positive patient is found in an area, then the permission to open the market there will be deemed to be revoked as soon as a container zone is created in that area.
