DISTRIBUTION OF NEW YEAR'S PACKAGES IN BUJANOVAC WAS CANCELED DUE TO NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE MEASURES

25. December 2020.

Bujanovac - Due to non-compliance with the measures against COVID 19, and after several appeals by the organizers of the event to a large number of citizens gathered in the square, the distribution of New Year's packages to children from Bujanovac, which was organized by the Youth Office, was suspended.

According to the Bujanovac News portal, a large number of people were gathered close around   the New Year's decoration in the square before the distribution began, wanting to be first in line once the distribution started, while there was no distance among them and anti-COVID measures, while the organizers asked them in vain to make some distance among them, emphasizing that there would be no distribution if it was not done.

Then the organizers withdrew to the Cultural Center, and people with children followed them, and in a general commotion, about thirty packages were snatched before the event was finally stopped.

“Due to non-compliance with the measures, we could not continue. We will go on with the distribution in some other way, "Arbnor Sadrija from the Youth Office said for the Bujanovac News portal. 

One of the disappointed parents commented that "it is a shame what the organizers did".

"It is a great shame, now they are giving the packages to whomever they want. People enter the Cultural Center and return with the packages. Well, they called everyone yesterday through your portal, but the people are also to blame, everyone was pushing to take a package. Misery and poverty, what can you do about it, "said the father of a girl.

According to the organizers of the event, the packages were provided by donations from several people.
