Lucknow: Due to the global epidemic of coronavirus, Section 144 has been implemented in all districts of Uttar Pradesh, under which not more than 5 people will be able to gather at one place. The corona protocol will be strictly enforced even during campaigning in panchayat elections. For this, a letter has been sent to the District Magistrate and SP of all the districts. There is permission for gathering more than 100 people at any event with permission.
