With the rapid increase of new cases in the second wave of COVID-19 across the country, six more districts have gone for prohibitory order. With this, 29 districts have partial or full restrictions meant to break the chain of coronavirus.

Gulmi, Phyutha, Kavre, Gorkha, Bajura and Udayapur districts have enforced prohibitory order from today, the Ministry of Home Affairs stated.

Three districts will go in restriction from this midnight while seven other districts will enforce the prohibitory order from Sunday.

It is said that Udayapur, Pyuthan and Gulmi will enforce prohibitory order in all the local levels.

Likewise, Morang, Jajarkot and Jhapa districts have already enforced prohibitory order to be implemented from this midnight.

Similarly, Salyan, Rukum West and Dadeldhura will have prohibitory order from 6:00 am on Sunday.

The Chief District Officers (CDOs) have been issuing prohibitory orders in the districts after the Ministry of Home Affairs entrusted the concerned CDOs to issue such order considering the local context of the infection.

As per the Infectious Disease Control Act 1964, the government has given the responsibility to the CDOs to issue prohibitory order in case the hilly and mountainous districts have 200 actives cases of the coronavirus and 500 active cases in Kathmandu Valley and districts in the Tarai region.
