Greater Noida: The residents of a housing complex in Greater Noida near Delhi and the police in the area had a face-off of sorts on Monday night after the entire complex was sealed because three members of a family living there tested positive for coronavirus.
The residents of Supertech Ecovillage One objected to the sealing of the entire complex and argued with the police that only the building from where the COVID-19 cases emerged should be sealed.
Residents argued that said that most of the offices have reopened and that they have to go to offices.
“We’re standing in front of you. We’re also doing our jobs. It’s a government job. We work for 24 hours and get paid for 12 hours. If it is a matter of argument, then come out,” a police officer, holding a mic, is seen telling the residents.
“We will die of hunger, Sir,” a male voice from the residential complex can be heard saying.
“You can speak to the District Magistrate. We didn’t let even the migrants die of hunger,” the officer replies.
After a long round of talks, the administration managed to pacify the residents. Supertech Ecovillage One has now been completely sealed.
