Uttar Pradesh government has revised its guidelines related to the public gathering due to the recent surge in the covid cases.

Under the new norms, the state government restricted the number of guests at a wedding venue to 100.
 

On October 15, the state government had permitted 200 guests at weddings with proper safety protocols but now the number has been reduced to 100 at a time in any function outside the containment zone.
 
New guidelines also restricted the use of open spaces to 40 percent of the total capacity, while it directed the local administration to make arrangements for sanitization, thermal screening, and social distancing.

 
This has been done in the wake of growing covid cases in state and particularly in western districts bordering National Capital Region.
 
The number of Covid cases is growing in these districts but cases are less in other districts.
 
The state currently has 23776 active cases with Lucknow having the highest number of cases followed by Meerut, Ghaziabad, and Gautam Buddh Nagar.
