Early Times Report
Srinagar, Apr 3: Even as the world is struggling to get rid of coronavirus, some of the people in Kashmir are unwilling to work in way that prevents spread of the deadly virus.

In view of many CoVID-19 positive cases in #Srinagar “Contact Tracing” holds the key to avoid furher spread. Surveillance teams complain reluctance in some cases. Pl be truthful,cooperative and responsible.Easy & quick for all of us. Let’s not complicate anymore. #BreakThe Chain.”

Such people are risking lives of one and all,” said the Batamaloo resident. It is pertinent to mention that social media accounts of Kashmiri people are flooded with such complaints about “liars” while some of the concerned have been making appeals that nobody should hide such details.
When contacted a senior official confirmed about the problem and appealed the people to cooperate with the government in fight against coronavirus. |
