Committee formed to review coronavirus situation: VC Sajjanar

The government appointed Cyberabad Police Commissioner VC Sajjanar as the nodal officer to monitor the situation in the IT corridor and he is working jointly with the IT firms and Society for Cyberabad Security Council. “A Standard Operating Protocol document has been designed for the IT firms as part of preventive measures,” he told.

A high powered coordination committee has been formed with members from the police, Health Department, SCSC, GHMC and others. The committee will review and monitor the situation on a daily basis



and advise the industry on measures to be taken from time to time. It will also disseminate media bulletins issued by the Health Department to IT firms.

Three scenarios have been identified to help IT firms follow the standard operating procedure, in the event of a suspected case. First, an employee returning from abroad, second, an employee found to be having symptoms at the work place, and, third, an employee found to be having symptoms within the same building or IT firm or proximity.
