Haryana government on Friday, 24 December, imposed night curfew in view of rising COVID-19 cases of the highly contagious Omicron variant.

The movement of people has been restricted from 11 pm to 5 am, and gatherings of more than 200 people in public places and events has been prohibited.

Earlier, state Health Minister Anil Vij had announced that only fully vaccinated people – those who have received both the doses – could be allowed in public spaces. However, the government on Friday clarified that “unvaccinated” people – who have not received even a single dose of the vaccine – will not be allowed to enter public places from 1 January 2022.

"The world is witnessing the fourth surge and and the overall positivity is 6.1 percent. Therefore, we have to be on guard and we can't afford to slacken," Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan stated.
