A total of 26398 people have so far been arrested for violating the national lockdown regulations mainly for unnecessary movements. We urge the public to stay at home, save for those who have been exempted to provide essential services i.e medical,mining and retail sectors etc.

Replenishing of supplies should be done at the nearest shops/within a 5 km radius and gathering for the purpose of consuming alcohol at shopping centres/private residents is illegal. The police will arrest all those who violate the law. #stayathome
