Dutta said the issue is to bring people to the plant as some may be living in the coronavirus containment zone. We have the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for social distancing, sanitisation and other hygiene aspects.

Chief Minister K.Palaniswami has said the committee will submit its report on Monday.
