Apparently, Jabalpur recorded 242 number of COVID-19 cases on Friday against discharge of 191 people who recuperated. The number of COVID-19 patient in single day happens to be biggest in the COVID-19 spell. The galloping speed in COVID cases in unlock phase 4 with no ‘Sunday Viram’ and other measure to stop venturing of people at random act as an catalyst for the spate in number of cases. Also that the sparse sense of realisation among traders and organisations has failed to check the fast increase in COVID-19 cases.
 
As the resolutions taken by various business establishment have proved superficial to restrict market within the stipulated time. As markets remains operational beyond the closure time fixed by traders and various business establishments. According to information, the galloping number of COVID-19 cases recorded on Friday has become an issue of serious concern for denizens. With district administration having distanced it self to impose restriction on at random movement of people.
 
People by and large openly flout upon the preventive steps to contain the galloping speed as far as people falling prey to coronavirus. Allegedly, the decision taken by various market organisations namely in Jabalpur city namely Sarafa association, Niwadganj market, Mukadamganj, Ganjipura market, Kotwali traders association, Millauniganj, Gurandi and many other market sangh. Traders continue with their trade without adhering preventive norms of COVID-19. Height of apathy in the unlock phase 4 has been that administration has failed to make compliance pf Gumasta Act. With no weekly closure all market places remains operational through out the week adds as catalyst to increase COVID–19 cases in Jabalpur. With spare action taken under ‘Roko-toko Abhiyaan’ people by and large have become victim of feel good and consequently flout covid-19 protocol.
