Hubballi:  Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai is likely to review the COVID-19 containment measures announced by his government, including the “night curfew”, in the wake of opposition from businesses.

“I’m observing all of them, lets see, after I go to Bengaluru tomorrow, I will take a decision in this connection,” Bommai said in response to a question by reporters here, regarding opposition to night curfew.

As part of containment measures, the government also banned all New Year parties and gatherings in public places, and places like eateries, hotels, pubs, clubs and restaurants have been asked to operate with 50 per cent of their seating capacity from December 30 to January 2.
