Emerging from a 100-day lockdown, punctuated by a brief, fortnight-long exit, the city on Monday opened up to brisk business. Stay with us for all the latest updates:
*After the Red Flag Union made some noise, Greater Chennai Corporation has directed all zonal heads to compile details of all permanent and temporary workers who have been affected by Covid-19 till date.
*Treatment in hospitals for reasons other than Covid-19 is now expensive. Many such patients are prepared for additional bills including PPEs, Covid-19 test and disinfection costs, some now covered by health insurance, but very few realise they may have to spend at least 8,000 out of their pockets for attendants’ test and four-day stay.
Chennai cops to tweak signal timings to prevent pile-up of vehicles
*With the lockdown relaxed and more vehicles on roads, the Greater Chennai traffic police have decided to modify the timings of a few signals to ensure vehicles do not pile up at these places for long.
*Initially, the focus would be on main signals including Anna Salai, Velachery, Gemini flyover and Wall Tax Road junction among others.
