Mohali, April 12
The administration will soon carry out a house-to-house survey in the district to identify all healthcare workers (HCWs), frontline workers (FLWs) and people aged above 45 and ask them to get themselves vaccinated.
District Magistrate Girish Dayalan here today issued orders directing sub-divisional magistrates (SDMs) to appoint supervisors and BLOs with static teams/Covid-19 vaccination centres (CVCs) to identify all HCWs, FLWs and people aged above 45 through house-to-house survey. He also directed to set a daily target of vaccinating 3,000 beneficiaries in each sub-division in the district.
Dayalan directed the MC Commissioner to put up flexes urging people to get vaccinated and signboards in all major locations guiding them to vaccination centres.
He said it would be the responsibility of officers, including general manager, district industries, executive engineer, PPCB, area SHOs, Assistant Labour Commissioner, Assistant Excise and Taxation Commissioner, and District Education Officers, to motivate people for vaccination in industrial units, brick-kilns, factories, marriage palaces, restaurants, bars, shops, etc.
He said these officers would also report that as to how many people they had been able to motivate for vaccination each day. All leave/station leave, including gazetted holidays, stand cancelled.
He said failure to adhere to these directions would attract criminal penalty as per the provisions of the Disaster Management Act, 2005, and relevant provisions of the IPC.
