Mangaluru: Dakshina Kannada Deputy Commissioner Dr. KV Rajendra on Sunday extended the prohibitory orders to close all shops in the district after 6 pm for another two days (i.e: till August 3).

According to the order, all the shops in the district will remain closed after 6 pm and can only be opened between 6 am to 6 pm. Medical stores, hospitals, and other emergency services will remain operational as usual.
The restrictions were extended after the district police department sought an extension of the order from the DC.
