APPEAL TO TAMIL NADU CHIEF MINISTER TO RECONSIDER RELAXATION MEASURES
Further, in ensuring social distancing, the economy of the lower income group and self employed people should be protected.
I have submitted an appeal to Tamil Nadu Chief Minister to consider the following suggestions
1. Allow all taxis and private cars all over Tamil Nadu to ply with one driver and two persons in the rear seat irrespective of the size of the vehicle.
2. Allow all two wheelers to ply without pillion rider.
3. Allow all autorickshaws with driver and one passenger.
4. Do not insist that the domestic helpers, plumbers, carpenters etc. should get permission from the authorities to take up jobs. Logic for this decision appears to be flawed. Poor people have to run from pillar to post to get permission from the authorities and there would be crowd in the offices consequently.
5. Allow anybody to walk on the road provided the total number of people walking together will not be more than three and they will maintain distance of three feet between each other.
