Hundreds of people associated with the gyms carried out a protest march near the Chief Minister's residence in civil lines and raised their grievances.

"No outbreak of corona from gyms is seen in any of the states, " the Delhi Gym association said in a representation written to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. The association has demanded the Delhi Government to please take a positive decision for gyms and let the industry survive which is helping in building immunity and making Delhi healthier.

The association has said that the industry has somehow survived two lockdowns but this lockdown is breaking the foundation of the fitness industry. (ANI)
