He said that since many social orgzations are working in the district, so these can also be involved in ensuring their food and staying facilities.The Chief Minister said that instead of opening shops in every district, arrangements should be made for the door to door delivery by strengthening the supply chain in each district which will certainly ensure social distancing."The movement of vegetables and other essential commodities coming from neighboring States would also be ensured so that there is no problem in their movement," he added.The Chief Minister directed the officers to gear up the working of closely monitoring those who have come from foreign so that the chain of virus can be stopped.
