People who repeatedly violate home isolation/quarantine norms will be booked under the relevant provisions of IPC and the Disaster Management Act, 2005. However, after the spike in cases in recent days, Corporation Commissioner G. Prakash and other senior officials reviewed the multi-pronged strategies in combating the virus. It was decided to form CRTs to monitor people under isolation/home quarantine on a daily basis. A list of such homes would be shared with the teams to facilitate door-to-door monitoring. They would also assist such people in the supply of basic needs such as medicines, provisions etc.
