Strict action will be taken against those who are found violating the mask rule as per the Disaster Management Act. Fine will be charged if a person is found without wearing masks in public places or workspaces. However, the GO doesn’t specify the penalty for not wearing masks. Tamil Nadu and Delhi recently enforced strict rules over wearing of masks.
