The Maharashtra Chamber of Commerce, Industry & Agriculture (MACCIA) has called the new Covid-19 guidelines, especially the provision of imposing the fine on the customers and shopkeepers in case the individuals other than fully-vaccinated people are found trading in commercial establishments, illogical and an invitation to anarchy.

Under the new regulations issued last weekend, the vaccination violation will invite a fine of Rs 500 for the customer and Rs 10,000 for the shopkeeper/management. MACCIA has threatened a statewide agitation if the regulation/restriction is not lifted immediately.
