Alandur zone has 624 cases, of which the source of one-third of the cases are attributed to the visit to the market area on MKN road. For instance, last week, in Alandur zone (zone 12), traders on MKN road were asked to shut shops despite the low numbers in the zone.

The civic body had adopted the same strategy in other zones of the city too. Similar strategy is being adopted here," said the official. "We had the area under containment for two weeks and were able to control the spread. According to an official, a similar measure was adopted in the housing board quarters in Brindavan street in West Mambalam, a few metres off Arya Gowda street.
