- A face mask will be mandatory for shopkeepers and customers. 

- There will be no facility for drinking liquor at retail shops and model shops.

The liquor shops across the country were re-opened on Monday where the customers were also seen breaking the social distancing norms, forcing authorities to shut the stores in some places.
