Covid-19: Section 144 extended in Noida till June 30

NOIDA: In a bid to prevent the spread of Covid-19, restrictions under Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) in Gautam Buddh Nagar have been extended till June 30.
The restrictions were imposed soon after the UP government removed curbs in the districts where Covid cases are lower than 600 and ordered status quo in those with cases above 600.

According to the order issued by the Noida police, subsequent to the state government’s revised directions on the restrictions to be imposed in the districts due to rhe Covid situation, Gautam Buddh Nagar will continue to have restrictions imposed as Covid cases at higher than 600 here.
“In pursuant to the revised order dated May 30,2021, the Covid conditions would remain in place here as the number of cases is higher than 600 in GB Nagar. Once the cases reduce from 600, the restrictions would automatically get over,” says the order issued by Gautam Buddh Nagar additional deputy police commissioner (law and order), Shraddha Pandey.
