Following the Rajasthan Chief Minister's order, schools and other educational institutions closed down in mid-March due to COVID-19. The closure of our entry point followed this action for the public and tourists at the toll bar. Being the only roadway in the city, Abu took all precautions to monitor the movement of people in and out of Abu. So hopefully, our effective closure and our strict adherence to remaining at home will help to maintain our status quo.
Abu relies heavily on tourism, so the lockdown will greatly impact its tourist industry and economy. By being enclosed, and hopefully, with no positive cases, we have time to recoup our resources. Abuites have a unanimous approach to handling anything that comes their way, including forest fires, droughts, and destructive storms.
The pandemic will test the mettle of Abuites in the coming weeks as this lockdown continues. Will the folks of Abu ride the storm of this uncertainty?
Overall, Abu, at the moment, is coping well in this present state of Lockdown.
As and when news breaks of the latest happenings here, I’ll keep you posted.
Be SAFE STAY AT HOME
