Delhi Implements Colour-Coded Alert Levels, From 1 To 4, To Fight Covid

Amid fears of a possible third wave of Covid infections, Delhi has put into force a graded action plan to tackle any surge in cases in the coming days. The national capital is the first city to enforce such a plan. The action plan, which lays down separate guidelines for four levels of severity that are marked by different colour codes, came into effect following a formal order issued by the Delhi government.

According to the action plan, a yellow alert, which marks Level 1 of severity, will come into force if Delhi records a positivity rate of over 0.5 per cent for two consecutive days or reports 1,500 new cases in a week or 500 oxygen beds are occupied in a week. Under the yellow alert, shops would be allowed to operate between 10 am and 8 pm on an odd-even basis. Metro services will be allowed at 50 per cent passenger capacity. Buses can also function at 50 per cent capacity for passengers who have permission to travel.

A night curfew would be in force between 10 pm and 5 am. Under the yellow alert, restaurants would be allowed to host guests up to 50 per cent capacity from 8 am to 10 pm. Bars can stay open between noon and 10 pm, also at 50 per cent capacity.

No gathering will be allowed if any alert is in force. Wedding ceremonies and funerals will be allowed under every alert but the number of people attending will be capped.
