\nITANAGAR, Jul 18:<\/strong> Following the detection of six people with Covid-19 in Chiputa village in Doimukh subdivision of Papum Pare district, the district administration has declared the village as a containment zone.
\nIt is still unclear how the six people got infected; however, sources informed that one among them is a policeman posted at the PHQ in Chimpu.
\nIn his order, DC Pige Ligu stated that the persons would be put under home quarantine for 14 days, and that they would not be allowed to move out of their building(s) and apart-ment(s) unless permitted by the medical team from the district medical office in Yupia.

\n“The movement of people for supply of essential items and other emergency services shall be regulated and police and security guard shall be deployed by the superintendent of police, Yupia, in this village to regulate the movement,” it read.
\nThe DC directed the DMO to deploy staff to oversee the medical requirements of the six persons and the other residents of the village. He said essential items required by the six persons would be provided by the Doimukh SDO in coordination with shopkeepers and police and health workers.
\nThe DC also informed that the DMO\/DSO will carry out antigen\/RT-PCR and TrueNat tests on all six at the earliest, and that sanitization of the village would be carried out when required by the team formed by the DMO\/DSO.
\nThe DA has restricted any gathering\/assembly in the village. The perimeter of the containment zone is the village area.<\/p>\n
