To register at the “Registration Desks”, at both the Shiva Temple and Vishnu Temple, by writing the names of each and every individual gaining entry in to the premises along with their phone numbers.
The volunteers would check the temperature of each and every individual gaining access to the Temple.
Visitors would be given a token at each of the Temple mentioned above, which shall be returned back at respective counters at the time of exiting the Temple. This measure is to enable the Temple volunteers to monitor the number of devotees inside the Temples and adhere to the maximum permissible numbers.
Visitors / Devotees are required to stand in marked spots which are spaced out with the 4 sq.mt., rule (1.5mtrs on all sides from the next person) and offer their prayers and NOT to Congregate in front of the shrine.
The above measure would apply to devotees / visitors, waiting in the queue to gain entry as well, unless otherwise from the same house-hold.
Devotees are also encouraged to complete their prayers in a timely manner and exit the facility to provide opportunity for those, who are waiting in the queue to gain entry.
Wearing of Face Mask, whilst being inside the Temple has been made mandatory based on the strong recommendations from NSW Health Dept, since August 2020. Devotees are advised to bring their own masks or can choose to buy one from the counter.
