Covid-19 spike: Wear mask or go to jail, warns Telangana govt

特伦甘纳邦政府警告：病例激增，要么戴口罩，要么进监 狱

HYDERABAD: In view of the surge in Covid-19 cases, the Telangana government on Saturday made it mandatory for people across the state to wear masks while step out into public places. Those violating the diktat, the order stated, will be subjected to strict punishment — even imprisonment.

海得拉巴：鉴于新冠病例激增，特伦甘纳邦政府周六宣布，全邦民众外出必须佩戴口罩。该命令指出，违反该命令的人将受到严惩，甚至被监禁。

“Wearing masks is one of the most important interventions to prevent Covid-19 infection. It is mandatory to wear masks in all public places, workspaces and public means of transport across the state,” the order, issued by Telangana chief secretary Somesh Kumar read. It added: “Any deviation in this regard shall attract prosecution under Section 51 and 60 of Disaster Management Act 2005 and Section 188 of the Indian Penal Code (Disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant)”.

该命令由特伦甘纳邦首席秘书索迈什·库马尔宣布：“戴口罩是预防新冠感染的最重要措施之一。在全邦所有公共场所、工作场所和公共交通工具上都必须戴口罩。”，并补充说:“根据《2005年灾害管理法》第51条和第60条以及《印度刑法》第188条(不服从公职人员适时发布的命令)，任何违反规定的人将被起诉。”

According to Sections 51 to 60 of the Disaster Management Act, anybody found obstructing an officer or employee from performing duty will be imprisoned for a term, which may extend to one year or fined, or both.

根据《灾害管理法》第51至60条，任何妨碍官 员履行职责的人将被判处有期徒刑，最长可达一年，或面临罚款，或两者兼判。

To ensure strict implementation of the mask rule, the government issued directions to all collectors, district magistrates, commissioners and superintendents of police in the state to keep watch, while also imposing restrictions on public gatherings, congregations, rallies and processions during the upcoming religious events.

为了确保佩戴口罩规定的严格执行，政府向该邦所有征税员、地方法官、专员和警察局长发出指示，要求他们保持警惕，同时还对即将到来的宗教活动期间的公众集会和游行施加限制。

不戴口罩的话，很容易把疾病传给周围的无辜者。即使在餐馆里，保持2米的社交距离也是必须的。

NO WONDER THE WORST COVID STATES ARE MAHARASHTRA, PUNJAB, KERALA, TELENGANA, DELHI, ...... THEY ARE BUSY ABUSING MODI JI THAN LOOKING AFTER THE WELFARE OF THE STATE!

难怪疫情最严重的邦是马哈拉施特拉邦、旁遮普邦、喀拉拉邦、泰伦加纳邦、德里，......

他们忙着辱骂莫迪，而不为本邦人民谋福祉！

Anish Kumar

No need for any fines or jail terms. Just ask them to stay at home if they fall sick as the hospitals are full. That will teach them to be careful and wear masks. If they don't care about their own lives and health then let them suffer when they fall sick.

不要罚款，也不要监禁。如果他们生病了，就让他们呆在家里，医院已经人满为患。

如此一来，他们以后会小心，戴好口罩。如果他们不在乎自己的生命和健康，那就让他们患病受苦吧。

satheesh kumar

continuous hours of wearing same mask will produce more infection. Govt should provide free masks to everyone, everyone can't afford buying N95 masks. Mask is the no.1 birth place for many infections. .

连续数小时戴口罩且不更换的话，会造成更多的感染。政府应该为每个人提供免费口罩，大家都买不起N95口罩。

Ramesh Kumar

It is nobody's business to tell me to mask up.

戴不戴口罩是我的事，没人能要求我戴
