Authorities on Saturday imposed a week-long night curfew in three municipalities and three unions of Narail's Sadar upazila to break the chain of Covid-19 transmission in the district.
The decision was taken at an emergency meeting of the District Coronavirus Prevention Committee on Friday night, in view of a surge in Covid cases in the three municipalities and the three unions.
Deputy Commissioner Habibur Rahman said the curfew will remain in force from 6:00pm to 8:00am in Narail, Lohagara and Kalia municipalities, and Kalor, Singasholepur and Bichali unions of Sadar upazila.
Legal action will be initiated against anyone found violating the restrictions and Covid-safety protocols.
