After over six months of closure, restaurants in Mumbai and the rest of Maharashtra are set to reopen around the first week of October. The state government has released a nine-page standard operating procedure (SOP) regarding the same.

According to a report in Times of India, customers whose body temperature exceeds 100 degree Fahrenheit and those who have COVID-19 symptoms will not be allowed to enter. Only disinfected bottled water will be served and customers’ details will be shared with municipal and health authorities in case of contact tracing.
