Mangaluru/Udupi, Jan 23: The twin cities of the coastal districts were found bustling with activity after the withdrawal of weekend curfew that was imposed two weeks ago.
People were found busy buying groceries as well as having weekend outings and other leisurely activities.
All shops were open in both the cities. Business establishments were thronged by people as for the past two weekends they were closed.
Traditional art activities like Kola, Nema, Jathre and Yakshagana were also held. It was only after 10 PM that the rush reduced following the night curfew.

Sun, Jan 23 2022Authorities should strictly ban all kinds of congregations with immediate effect to curb rapid spread of the highly transmissible Omnicorn virus rather than resorting to night and weekend curfew!

Sun, Jan 23 2022Thats what i am saying that put police in public places to monitor whether people are following covid appropriate behaviour..Police should put FIR and fine for organizing mass gatherings...Also 10 police should be there in marriage functions to check whether they are following covid norms as per guidlines or not....Police should shout in mic 'Omicron is very dangerous' so that people will fear and follow all guidelines in villages...This is only way we can beat the pandemic...Boosters should be given to everyone..

Sun, Jan 23 2022The results of these mass gatherings at various places will be out in the next 10 days when the highly transmissible virus takes a toll on the young and old! The issue is not of weekend curfew but the mass congregations that continue unabated despite strict ban by government! Heavy price will be paid for this complacency!

Sun, Jan 23 2022But I think these words should come from our Health cum Astrologer minister Dr Dr Sudhaker and CM Bommai. Then only 100% Corona virus will go. ( Dr Sudhaker already predicted virus will raise in February).

Sun, Jan 23 2022See....Omicron is more transmissable than delta...Thats why weekend curfew and restrictions are must to break the chain and to reduce deaths......Full lockdown cannot be implemented as hospitalization is less...If no weekend lockdown, cases may go up to 1 lakhs....

Sun, Jan 23 2022Never understood the purpose of night curfew after 10 or 11.As if people and crowds gather only in the night.This question remain unanswered.
