There is urgently a need to have to be some system devised for persons delivering goods to houses and the place where these supplies are distributed for the personal involved to be tested before they are allowed to venture out in above activities. If they can be issued a Essential services pass one must device a method that on a daily basis the person who engages in distribution , selling, or any activity of that nature carries a certificate that he / she is free form the infection. There only a very few vendors a manageable amount that operates now.not only the vehicle but the person also should be certifies with his picture, Id so that spot Cheques can be done when they are seen going in the area to see if it is the certified person attending to same. Manning market got close. The Economic center in Narahenpita is opened. It is good as people must have a way of getting goods. But it is free for all. Even the basic requirement of wearing a mask not followed by the customer ,Vendors
