Worried about stopgap Covid-19 restrictions, city hoteliers have said that they will not be able to bear the burden of another round of curbs if cases rise again or if a third wave comes. Businessmen questioned that if big players are not able to survive the restrictions, how will small restaurants and hotels make ends meet.
The state government has classified districts for relaxations based on the test positivity rate (TPR) and availability of oxygen beds. Mumbai is in Level 3 and it is hoped that it will graduate to Level 2 since the TPR has been steady. However, after the closing of a five-star hotel’s Mumbai outlet on Monday, many have claimed that the sudden easing and imposing of lockdowns is harming businesses.
