The state government has also lifted the ban on the sale of paan, gutkha and tobacco products while making it clear that spitting in public is still a punishable offence.
Amending the lockdown 4.0 guidelines, the government allowed the use of taxis, including Ola and Uber, and auto rickshaws within the red zones on a condition that social distancing and sanitisation will be ensured.
Public parks in red zones will also be open from 7 am to 6.45 pm.
These activities are already permitted in orange and green zones of the state. SDA SNE
