New Delhi, 13/3: The Delhi government has taken a big decision regarding the growing threat of Coronavirus. No Indian Premier League (IPL) match will be played in Delhi this year. Apart from this, any big event of any kind has also been canceled. Arvind Kejriwal’s government has taken this decision in view of thousands of people not gathering in one place.

Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia announced on Friday that there has been a ban on organizing any conference or seminar in the capital. These instructions will continue with the government’s next order. All the District Magistrates of Delhi have been informed about this.

दिल्ली सरकार ने कोरोना के फैलाव को रोकने के लिए सभी sports gatherings (including IPL), बड़े सेमिनार, कोंफ़्रेंस आदि के आयोजन पर पाबंदी लगा दी है. सभी DM, SDM अपने क्षेत्रों में कोरोना सम्बन्धी आदेशों के पालन पर निगरानी रखेंगे.
