Delhi has announced GRAP 1, bringing new restrictions that may force NCR offices to adopt work‑from‑home arrangements or continue normal operations under updated guidelines.
Delhi has announced the implementation of General Relief and Assistance Programme (GRAP) 1, a measure aimed at managing public health and safety in the National Capital Region. The directive outlines specific restrictions that could affect the functioning of government and private offices across NCR.
Under GRAP 1, many offices are advised to adopt work‑from‑home (WFH) arrangements where feasible, while others may continue normal operations with additional safety protocols. Employees are urged to follow the latest guidelines issued by the Delhi government to ensure compliance.
The government has also imposed certain bans on large gatherings and public transport usage in key areas of the NCR. These measures are in effect today and are expected to remain until further notice, pending assessment of the situation.
Officials have emphasized that the primary goal of GRAP 1 is to maintain essential services while minimizing the risk of disease transmission. Employees and businesses are encouraged to stay updated through official channels for any changes in the restrictions.
For more detailed instructions, stakeholders should consult the Delhi government's official website and local administrative notices.
