Dear Chief Secretary/ Administrator,

Instructions have been issued by the Central Government regarding certain preventive measures to be taken in the light of the spread of COVID 19 (copies enclosed).

2. Given that this outbreak has been declared a global pandemic, it would be in public interest if similar measures are taken by State Governments and Union Territories. I request you to take measures as appropriate.

3. I will be grateful to be kept informed of the instructions issued in this regard.

With regards,

Yours sincerely,
