The association pointed that the bulwark of containment is being enforced by the states and local authorities like Municipalities, who are better equipped to operate at Ward levels given their administrative mechanisms are designed at those levels. This will help states free scarce resources from wards less affected, and those wards marked as red will then receive concentrated attention of the local authorities. With better coordinated quarantine and supply of essentials, these places will possibly become contamination-free faster and help break the contagion chain reaction.
IAMAI stated that restrictions at district level is too broad a canvas that severely hinders economic revival as well. The association highlighted that industries and establishments are finding it difficult to resume activity as restricting entire districts restrict large section of population, that affects resumption of workforces and market access. Focusing at ward levels will help ease critical economic resources and allow market dynamics to resume normalcy.
