Punjab Government’s big decision on the threat of Corona: Government employees who do not take a single dose of the vaccine will be sent on leave; Punjab to become first state to open Anganwadi Center

In view of the danger of Corona, the Captain Government of Punjab has taken a big decision regarding government employees. In the Kovid review meeting on Friday, CM Captain Amarinder Singh said that the employee who has not received a single dose of the Kovid vaccine, will be sent on forced leave. The deadline for this has been fixed till September 15. Only those employees will be exempted from this order, who cannot get the vaccine due to health reasons.

Captain Amarinder Singh said that this step has been taken to save the people of Punjab from Corona so that those who have got the Kovid vaccine do not have to pay the price of those who constantly hesitate to get the vaccine. Apart from this, he has allowed those teaching and non-teaching staff to join duty, who have taken a dose of Kovid vaccine at least 4 weeks ago. However, they will have to give a weekly RTPCR negative report of the Kovid test. Those who have any other diseases together and have taken both the doses of Kovid, they will have to give this report only once.

Apart from this, the Captain has given permission to the Social Security Department to open Anganwadi Center in Punjab this month. However, for this, it is mandatory for the staff to be vaccinated. Punjab will be the first state in the entire country to open Anganwadi Centre.
