"There will be no New Year celebrations at public places, due to COVID-19 and the emergence of the new strain of the virus in the United Kingdom," stated Basavaraj Bommai.

Bengaluru Police Commissioner Kamal Pant said that Section 144 of CRPC would be imposed across the city from 6 pm on December 31 till 6 am on January 1 in the light of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Meanwhile, owners of pubs and bars in Bengaluru are unhappy with government restrictions citing they are not expecting a good business during the New Year season.

Owner of a pub told ANI, "DJ systems are not allowed and people cannot dance inside premises. On December 24 night, many people cancelled their bookings."
