Capital Development Authority (CDA) is assisting ICT Administration in installation of these sanitising walkthrough gates. People will walk through these sanitising gates spraying disinfectants against coronavirus before entering the areas.

Initially these sanitising disinfectants walkthrough gates would be installed at different locations including two at Sabzi Mandi, three at Pak Secretariat, eight gates at 8 different Katchi Abadies, four at ‘Panaghas’ and other public places. After walking though these gates, disinfectants help kill viruses. In this connection, 20 feet long sanitizing walk-through gates are being installed at Sabzi Mandi one at entry and other one at exit of the mandi.

The length of these gates will help remove coronavirus from hundreds of people entering the mandi on daily basis.
