West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee on Wednesday informed that she will constitute a committee, headed by the health secretary, to monitor the Covid situation in the state amid reports of upheaval in China after the number of cases surge in the country.
CM Banerjee made the announcement during a review meeting on the preparedness of the upcoming Gangasagar Mela, slated to be held in January next year, at the state secretariat, Nabanna.
Unaware of the Covid situation in China, CM Banerjee said in the meeting that the neighbouring country is not following any restrictions. She also said the Covid situation in China went out of control despite restriction but the curbs were lifted later.
To this, a party functionary informed her about the current situation in different nations, especially China, where the number of infected patients is increasing. The chief minister immediately asked the officials to take note of the situation and form a committee with competent members.
