Gujrat government has increased the fine for not wearing face mask and spitting in public places in the state to 500 rupees from 200 rupees announced earlier.

The decision was taken by Chief Minister Vijay Rupani today.

In areas falling under the Ahmedabad and Surat municipal limits, the fine for not wearing face mask in public places has already been increased to 500 rupees.

The government has also ensured that face masks are made available to citizens easily and at low prices. All the Amul milk parlours in the state will sell simple face masks for two rupees each.
