Another containment order was issued for the Madanrting neighbourhood of the state capital today, with the Rani Building in Block D declared a containment zone.
The East Khasi Hills District Magistrate took the decision after three Covid-19 cases were detected there.
The building houses 52 families in different units, but as they are located in close proximity to each other and share a common entry-exit, the whole building has been declared as a containment zone to restrict the spread of Covid-19.
