The government has made compulsory for wearing masks in worship places, including mosque, temple and churches mandatory.

The Ministry of Religious Affairs revealed this information by sending a notification on Sunday.

According to notification, directives on wearing mask in religious places were issued on various occasions in order to prevent Covid-19 infection along with other measures.

But it is a matter of concern that nowadays flexibility is being observed in worship places in terms of wearing masks.

There is a government instruction of wearing masks everywhere including religious places to get rid of probable second wave Covid-19 infection.

Under this situation, new instruction has been issued to this end.
