This video is from west UP’s Saharanpur and underlines how tough it is for cops and admin to enforce covid protocol . A trader well and truly lost it when asked to wear a mask , pay a fine and told a repeat violation will lead to shop getting sealed ..... pic.twitter.com/GXgKA47BFL

Also , as many have pointed out , while the cops are all masked up in the video , the admin rep’s mask is more or less a showpiece .... may have come off during the argument but still , it defeats the purpose ...
