Private
establishments across the city have been advised to work from home. The
decision was made at the DDMA meeting held at the LG Secretariat here. The
meeting, chaired by Lieutenant Governor V K Saxena, was also attended by Chief
Minister Arvind Kejriwal. "All schools, colleges and universities are
being closed till Sunday," Kejriwal told reporters after the meeting. "All
government offices associated with non-essential services will be closed till
Sunday. Private offices will be issued an advisory to follow work from home
practice," he said. Officials said commercial establishments around
Kashmere Gate will be asked to close till Sunday. Buses coming to ISBT will
stop at Singhu Border, and DTC buses will ferry people from there, they said. The
chief minister also warned of chances of an acute water shortage in the city. "There
is going to be an acute shortage of water since three treatment plants are
closed. There could be a shortage of 25 per cent water so ration will have to
be done," he said.
