NEW DELHI: An order to close two evening markets in Nangloi in west Delhi for violation of Covid-19 safety measures was withdrawn by the district administration hours after it was issued, officials said on Monday.

However, the order for closure was withdrawn hours later as the Delhi government proposal for regulation of markets amid the pandemic is pending with the Centre.”The order for closure of market has been withdrawn because a proposal of Delhi government for regulation of markets in view of Covid-19 surge is pending with the Central government. The district officials can take action against individuals for violation but cannot seal an entire market,” said a senior government officer.
