Though the World Health Organisation and doctors are reiterating about the virus spreading in winter season, the people's representatives are allegedly breaking rules and neglecting warnings by participating and organising programmes and meetings. Officials noticed that corona cases have increased during Bathukamma and Dasara festivals in the district.

According to the medical and health department health bulletin, every day more than 100 cases are being reported in the district. One health official said during MLAs and Ministers' visits, mass gathering was taking place and there are more chances for spreading the virus.

K Venkat Rao, a senior citizen of Kothagudem, said political meetings and official programmes are being conducted each day and people are gathering, which is spreading the virus. People are faulting the people's representatives and officials for conducting mass meetings and programmes. Another important reason for the virus spread is that people are not following social distance and wearing mask.

District Medical and Health Officer G Bhaskar Naik said that they are creating awareness among the people, but most of them are not taking care and coming out without masks and not maintaining social distance.
