Next time you step out, make sure you are wearing your face mask and do not forget to maintain distance. Otherwise you may end up paying a fine and could also be shamed in public.

 

According to the BBMP, on Monday, dozens of BBMP marshals out on the roads caught the public and fined them for not wearing face masks and failure to maintain distance.

 

Officials have booked 2,997 people and collected a fine amount of Rs 5.99 lakh.

The BBMP has made clear that it will intensify its crackdown as it desperately wants to bring down the number of cases.
