Chief Secretary A K Tripathy had earlier said that indiscipline and violation of quarantine guidelines by a handful of people "must not derail the preparedness put in place to keep the 4.5-crore people of the state secure amid the pandemic." He further said, "Quarantine guidelines will be implemented strictly.
