Madam Mayor, where’s your mask?
by Ahmedabad MirrorThe first citizen should always be the first one to follow rules. However, at a charity event in the city on Thursday, Mayor Bijal Patel refused to abide by basic safety rules in the times of corona pandemic. While everyone else at the event sported masks, the mayor decided to do away with the safety gear. It is compulsory for all citizens of Gujarat to wear masks whenever they step out of their house. If they violate this rule, they’ll be charged Rs 200 as fine. But this does not seem to bother Bijal Patel. While AMC has taken action against the aam junta of Ahmedabad for violating this rule, the question remains: will officials take action against the Mayor?
