During a secretary-level meeting on the status of COVID-19 in the country, a senior central government official on Monday expressed apprehension that Kumbh could become a "super spreader". This information has been given by the news agency ANI, citing a top source in the government. The source said that the government is concerned about Kumbh and discussed it in a high-level meeting on Monday.
A member involved in the high-level meeting said, "If the government does not decide to end the Kumbh before the scheduled time, it could become a COVID-19 'super spreader'."
Thoughts on spreading awareness with the help of sadhus and religious leaders
"The government is forming a team that, with the help of sadhus and religious leaders, will appeal to pilgrims going to Kumbh to wear masks and observe social distancing," the source told news agency ANI. The source said, "At the same time, the government also suggested that a message should be given through TV and radio. Also, posters should be put up in public places to spread awareness among the people that the epidemic is not over yet.". "
Let us tell you that the Central Government is not considering ending Kumbh before time. The government has also asked the officials for ideas to curb the spread of infection. Sources said that the government plans to carry out a "Mission for Healthy Fear" to ensure that fear of the disease remains among the people. They feel discouraged for rejecting health norms.
