GUWAHATI, Nov 15: The Nagaon district administration on Monday declared two containment zones near a junior college for two weeks in view of the detection of 10 COVID-19 positive cases in the institution.

 

Reportedly, the COVID cases in the college were detected when some students, as well as the principal of the institution, tested positive for the virus, following which the college has been shut down.

 

The order, issued by the Nagaon DC’s office under the provisions of The Assam COVID-19 Regulations 2020, directed the circle officer of Nagaon Sadar revenue circle to seal the areas immediately with proper barricading.
