Mumbai: Days after Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray asked the administration to be more vigilant and step up containment measures to curb rising Covid-19 cases, the BMC has launched a comprehensive plan to keep tabs on citizens flouting rules of home-isolation, while those failing to observe pandemic norms at wedding and public gatherings will be prosecuted.
An FIR will be lodged against such persons for non-compliance. The BMC proposes to once again pursue its tracing, tracking, treatment and isolation/quarantine to curb infection.
The civic body has asked its staff to aim for Mission Zero in wards where cases are on the rise. Area-mapping will be done and the maximum testing will be conducted in such areas. At least 15 close contacts per patient will be tracked and isolated.
