Governor of California on Monday, July 13, officially ordered that many businesses, organizations including places of worship, must remain close for any indoor activities as a precaution against the reemergence and surge in the infection rate from the Coronavirus that causes the respiratory disease COVID-19. The order, issued by Governer Newsom is in effect immediately until further notice, though it could be revised when the health officials deem it necessary.
Abiding by this directive, the Jain Center of Southern California Premises will remain closed for all visitations indefinitely until further notice. The Jain Center of Southern California will be open only for the pujari, maintenance, and support staff and "essential" activities such as cleaning, and operational services.
