Punjab Government Issues Guidelines To Resume Shooting In Punjab
The Punjab Government on July 23 has approved detailed guidelines for shooting of films and music videos in the state, with restriction of 50 persons at the venue, along with strict adherence to COVID-19 safety protocols.
The decision came after Chief Minister Amarinder Singh approved these guidelines on July 22 and asked Chief Secretary Vini Mahajan to formulate clear directions in response to the request from a delegation of the entertainment industry, which approached the state government seeking permission to resume production activities.

The applications for grant of permission for shooting would need to be submitted to the deputy commissioner giving full details of the location, number of days and timings for which such permission is sought.
