These two factors have been central to the state&rsquo;s success in keeping Covid at bay, the high performance in governance has meant that rations and medicines could be reliably delivered to people&rsquo;s doorsteps and the high levels of cleanliness and hygiene among the state&rsquo;s people have helped limit the virus&rsquo; spread. &ldquo;Even when we had [many] Covid cases, the number of affected was [below] 4,000,&rdquo; says S.D. Dhakal, principal secretary to Chief Minister Prem Singh Golay. &ldquo;Now the number of [cases] is 320, even though we have restarted tourism.&rdquo;</p><p>In terms of cleanliness, the state government has increased its efforts for municipal waste processing. With governance being top priority, the state administration has also fast-tracked its digitisation of block development offices, with about 16 of 33 have now digitally connected with state headquarters for speedy execution and delivery of government schemes. The state government has also set up a testing lab for various medical conditions, including Covid-19. Earlier, for medical tests or services, patients had to travel either to the North Bengal Medical College in Siliguri, or to Guwahati. During the lockdown, the government realised the need to have a testing laboratory in the state, and worked on a war footing to make it operational at the earliest.</p><div id="tab-link-wrapper-plugin"><div class="authors__container"><div class="authors__by"><div class="authlable">Published By: </div><div class="authdetaisl">Iram Ara Ibrahim</div></div><div class="published__on"><div class="authlable">Published On: </div><div class="authdetaisl">Nov 27, 2020</div></div></div><div class="sendros">--- ENDS ---</div></div>

Security forces, including the Army, Jammu Kashmir Police, and CRPF, successfully eliminated two Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorists who were hiding in a natural cave within a dense forested terrain.

The incident occurred near the Makar Dwar as suspended MPs were protesting. The transcript highlights that Bittu, once a close associate of Gandhi, was heckled by Congress members following the remark. Additionally, the bulletin features a statement regarding the suspension of eight Congress MPs for the remainder of the session due to 'unruly behaviour'. Dilip Saikia, who was in the chair during the ruckus, stated that the members violated parliamentary decorum and rules.
