Reacting to severe criticism over imposition of Section 144, Chief Minister Pramod Sawant clarified that these restrictions are not applicable for religious functions and traditional Shigmotsav.
He also said activities held within private properties will not attract Section 144.
“Section 144 is relaxed for religious functions, traditional Shigmotsav and village level Shigmo festivities”, CM told the House.
“Section 144 is applicable for public roads and other public places. But people can go ahead with their activities in private properties by following Covid related restrictions,” said Sawant.
