Kundapur, Aug 23: One wonders whether Udupi district has been deliberately overlooking Covid rule violations. People are surprised at the inaction of the administration even when the positivity rate continues to be around 2.5 and guidelines are blatantly being violated.

For example, in the name of Onam festival, students of ECR College near Kota indulged in fun and frolic on a grand scale. The college students threw all caution and corona rules to winds when exulting in celebrations.

It may be recalled that there was hesitation to conduct degree examinations because of the coronavirus status. But ECR College where most of the students are of Kerala origin, did not care for the rules.

Even though as per rules people coming from Kerala have to undergo compulsory quarantine, fun and entertainment were in place on a large scale in the college as the district administratively closed its eyes to the happenings.
