If your neighbour is partying, call police: Chandigarh Advisor

Chandigarh, April 28 (IANS) If your neighbour is partying or socialising by inviting guests amid lockdown, just report to the police, Chandigarh Advisor Manoj Parida said on Tuesday.

“Now I appeal to residents to report against neighbours if they are holding parties or social gatherings or get-togethers in violation of curfew,” he informed in a tweet.

“Just call 112 or send a video clip as evidence. This seems to be the only way to deal with these enemies of society,” he added.

Nine cases, comprising three doctors, of COVID-19 were reported in the city on Monday, the highest single-day spike.

With the new cases, the total number of cases in Chandigarh rose to 45.

The police on April 25 registered a case against a 30-year-old COVID-19 positive man working at Government Medical College and Hospital (GMCH) in Sector 32 for hosting a party by violating social distance and lockdown norms.

He had tested positive on April 24.
