West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee<\/a> on Friday announced that night curfew will remain in force between 10 pm and 5 am, instead of current 9 pm to 5 am, during the extended coronavirus<\/a> lockdown till July 31.<\/p>\n

She also said she wants the metro services to resume from July 1, but only with 100 per cent seat occupancy, and no passenger standing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have decided that (from July 1) the night curfew hours will be from 10 pm to 5 am. We also want the Metro railways to resume services from July 1, by following all the precautionary and sanitization norms and only with 100 per cent seat occupancy policy,\u201d Banerjee told a press conference here.<\/p>\n

She said the Kolkata metro railways should ensure that it is running trains without any passenger standing or coaches being overcrowded.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Banerjee had announced the extension of the ongoing lockdown till July 31.<\/p>\n

She also accused opposition parties of indulging in politics at the time of crisis to score political brownie points.<\/p>\n

Speaking about her party\u2019s Martyr\u2019s Day rally on July 21, Banerjee said it would be observed, but in a much different way.<\/p>\n
