Chandrapur district collector Dr Kunal Khemnar's decision of providing some more services to the public during the lockdown was withdrawn within hours of it being announced owing to unruly crowds.
Dr Khemnar on Monday issued a circular announcing a change in the timings for operating shops selling essential commodities and in addition threw open the shops of mobile/telecom, electronic/electric sales and repairing, hardware, stationary, general goods and clothing/hosiery on specific days for a particular time window. The purpose was to allow people to access more services.
