How to prevent Monkey test from opening notification panel and turning OFF wifi?

Question

I am performing Monkey testing on my Android app. While performing events, Monkey pulls down the notification panel and clicks on wifi/mobile data icons, hence turning them OFF.

I am using this command: adb shell monkey -p package_name --throttle 100 -s 999 -v 50000

I have tried all the options given here: https://developer.android.com/studio/test/monkey.html

Is there any way to prevent Monkey test from opening notification panel?
