Chennai: Tamilnadu Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami today said the State government is planning to permit the operations of a few industries in districts where the coronavirus impact is less.

“There should be no hindrance in the transportation of crops, vegetables and fruits,” he said.
He also said during the distribution of tokens to buy commodities from ration shops, officials should explain in detail about the steps to be followed at the shops.
“People should go to the shops only on the time specified in the token. The idea of issuing token is to ensure that the shops do not get crowded. Social distancing should be followed at the shops,” he said.
He added that disinfectants should be sprayed at all places.”Public toilets should be cleaned thrice a day,” he added.
