The Jammu and Kashmir unit of the Congress on Thursday announced suspension of all its outdoor political activities and appealed to people to strictly follow government advisories to prevent the spread of coronavirus in the Union Territory.

"All outdoor political activities of the party stand suspended for the time being. The people are appealed to be fully aware and cooperate with the authorities by following the advisories and instructions to prevent the spread of the disease," Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee president G A Mir said.

He asked the government machinery to be fully geared up at all levels to meet the challenges and leave no stone unturned to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 disease and closely monitor the implementation of the instructions and advisories at all levels.

 

The Congress leader said there should be compliance of instructions over assembly of people. He also urged the government to ensure availability of all essential commodities to the people at grass-root level and regularly monitor any attempts of hoarding and profiteering by unscrupulous elements.
