Members of Parliament (MPs) and Members of Legislative Assembly (MLAs) travelling Himachal Pradesh's Hamirpur district for official work have been exempted from curfew restrictions, Deputy Commissioner Harikesh Meena said on Monday.

MPs, MLAs, chairpersons, vice chairpersons of various corporations and boards have been exempted from curfew restrictions, he added. The curfew has been imposed to contain the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.

The DC said they might travel without passes during curfew hours from their constituencies to Shimla and back in connection with meetings and official work.

In a notification issued here on Monday, Meena said the drivers and assistants of these public representatives and officials are also exempt from the curfew restrictions.
