New Delhi/IBNS: Cinema halls, theatres, multiplexes will reopen in the national capital with full seating capacity from Monday, the Delhi Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) said on Friday.

The Delhi government has also increased the number of people allowed to attend weddings, funerals from 100 to 200.

The DDMA order said that it will be the responsibility of the owners of cinema halls, theatres and multiplexes for maintaining strict adherence to standard operating protocol (SOP).

It also allowed all the authorised weekly markets in the capital to reopen from Nov 1.

With cases going down, schools will open for all classes in New Delhi from Nov 1 onwards, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia had announced.

The decisions were taken during a review meeting by Delhi Disaster Management Authority, said Sisodia who is also the Education Minister of Delhi.

The announcement comes at a time when the city is witnessing a steady decline in COVID-19 cases.

Earlier on Wednesday, the DDMA allowed devotees to perform Chhath Puja at designated spots in the national capital amid strict Covid protocols.

More than 90 percent in Delhi are carrying antibodies for coronavirus, NDTV quoting sources reported after the sixth sero-survey was conducted in the national capital.

Every district has registered no less than 85 per cent sero-positivity. More women than men have developed antibodies, NDTV citing sources reported.

Meanwhile, the Chhath Puja will be permitted to be organised at pre-decided venues.
